Accurate and reliable thermometry is essential in the development of microwave‐induced hyperthermal cancer therapy. While temperature measurements in strong electromagnetic fields usually require special sensors, this does not hold true for interstitial radiator/sensor systems. Miniature thermistors (with metallic leads) bonded to invasive microwave applicators exhibit a sensor error linearly related to the radiator's transmitted power. This relationship permits thermistor sensor error correction and temperature measurements to within ±0.1 °C or better. The instrumental methods and empirical validation are presented.
