In a method for temperature control in MR-guided administration of ultrasound, ultrasound therapy is administered to a patient at an in vivo site by emitting focused ultrasound into the site at multiple foci with a multi-focus ultrasound therapy device. The temperature is monitored in a localized region of an examination subject in which the site is located during the therapy in real-time by MR thermometry. From the MR thermometry, characteristics of the temperature distribution in the monitored region of the examination subject are automatically identified. Temperature control is implemented by regulating the energy output of the ultrasound therapy device, according to a rapidly converging master equation.
