MODEL RELEASED. Measuring body temperature. Digital instant ear thermometer being used to measure the core body temperature of a sixteen- month-old girl. A probe (not seen) is inserted into the ear canal. This measures the infrared energy emitted from the eardrum and surrounding tissues,a region that is very close to the body's core temperature regulating region in the hypothalamus. The temperature reading is shown on a digital display (not seen). Normal human body temperature is around 37 degrees Celsius. This thermometer allows easy measurement of the temperature of babies and young children with minimum discomfort | |
