Research has proven that it is possible to estimate temperature from body temperature (37°C) to 60°C. Our goal was overall contribute to the extension of this research such that it temperature estimation would be possible up to 70°C. To contribute to this research, the purpose of this work was to modify MATLAB code to be capable of data acquisition for synchronous temperature measurements and ultrasonic imaging from 36°C to 70°C. The design had to be robust, quick, and easy to repeat experiments.
