Zusammenfassung:The techniques described herein relate to a system including a light source configured to providing a beam of light to a sample of biological tissue, the light source including wavelengths over a range of at least 50 nm: a spectrometer configured for measuring a spectrum of an amount of light reflected from the biological tissue in response to the beam of light provided to the tissue; and a controller configured for directly correlating a temperature of the biological tissue with the spectrum of the light reflected from the biological tissue to determine a temperature of the biological tissue.
