Table II.
Average temperature error across all trials of the MAPA leg and phantom experiments for several reference combinations.
Average Temperature Error (°C) | |||
---|---|---|---|
Reference Configuration Used | All Leg Trials | *Leg Trials 2, 3, and 4 | All Phantom Trials |
Inner only | 1.33 | 0.94 | 0.28 |
Rect only | 1.75 | 1.53 | 0.51 |
Outer only | 1.82 | 1.37 | 0.37 |
Inner-Rect | 1.00 | 0.52 | 0.20 |
Inner-Outer | 1.05 | 0.44 | 0.13 |
Inner and 10 or more Outer | 1.09 | 0.51 | 0.19 |
In-Vivo Fat Layer only | 1.41 | 1.10 | N/A |
Results excluding leg trial #1 are shown for comparison since large temperature errors were seen in that single trial that are most likely due to confounding temperature changes in the leg.
