Thermal sensor for hyperthermia system

Abstract

The invention provides a temperature probe comprising an inlet end opposed to an outlet end; a flow-directing passage defined by a wall; the wall, the inlet end, and the outlet end configured to define a longitudinal axis; a strut attached to the wall at an attachment site, and a temperature sensor located at the distal tip of the strut to position the sensor in the flow of fluid along the longitudinal axis through the passage, wherein the distance from the inlet end to the sensor is less than the distance from the inlet end to the attachment site.
