The pulmonary artery catheter, which measures blood temperature, is considered the golden standard for measuring core body temperature.
The urinary bladder temperature is among the most reliable and accurate methods of core body temperature measurement in critically ill patients.
So, these all are different methods of checking core body temperature.
