Fiber optic temperature probes provide an alternative method to thermister temperature probes for measuring temperature. The fiber optic temperature probes use florescence technology to make accurate and reliable temperature measurements.  Despite the fact that the probes are small, flexible and made from optical fiber, they are remarkably durable.  Fiber Optic Temperature is available as an option for the MR-compatible Model 1025 Monitoring & Gating System and for the Model 1025L and 1025T systems for use PET, CT, SPECT, Optical and in the laboratory.

The fiber optic temperature probes have a tip diameter of 0.040" OD (1 mm) or 0.120" (3 mm). Standard probe lengths are 2’ and 6’. Fiber optic temperature extension cables are also available.

Fiber optic temperature probes are MR and CT-compatible.
