Doctors use rectal thermometers to measure body temperature because this method can provide the most accurate readings, especially in infants and young children. The rectal route is less affected by external factors and gives a reliable indication of core body temperature. This practice is particularly useful when a quick and precise assessment of a patient's temperature is necessary.
