Abstract
A medical temperature sensing probe including a temperature responsive device having electric contacts and insulated electric conductors having one end electrically connected to a respective one of the electric contacts. Each conductor comprises a carbon-fiber tow having low thermal conductivity and plated with an electrically conductive metal. The metal plated tows are X-ray translucent and have low thermal conductivity to minimize thermal conduction of heat to or from the temperature responsive device.
