Title:
DEEP BODY TEMPERATURE-MEASUREMENT PROBE AND DEEP BODY THERMOMETER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/189748
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A deep body temperature-measurement probe 2 according to the present invention comprises: a first heat flow measurement system 5 capable of measuring a first heat flow 5a that flows out of a test subject 9; and a second heat flow measurement system 6 capable of measuring a second heat flow 6a that flows out of the test subject 9. The first heat flow measurement system 5 has a first input-side heat insulating body 11, a first output-side heat insulating body 12, a first input-side temperature sensor 15, and a first output-side temperature sensor 16. The second heat flow measurement system 6 comprises a second input-side heat insulating body 13, a second output-side heat insulating body 14, a second input-side temperature sensor 17, and a second output-side temperature sensor 18. The first output-side heat insulating body 12 and the second output-side heat insulating body 14 are both composed of a heat insulating body that has a thermal conductivity approximately comparable with that of air. With the deep body temperature-measurement probe 2 according to the present invention, it is possible to improve measurement accuracy while using a dual heat flow method.
