Infrared tympanic thermometers are measuring devices that determine a patient's body temperature by estimating the temperature in the ear canal through measurement of body infrared emissions at that point. These reusable, battery-powered hand-held devices are used to measure a patient's ear canal temperature for instantaneous self-diagnosis and accurate temperature measurements.
