Temperature Measurement Using a Non Invasive Device

April 24, 2012 updated by: Medisim Ltd

Main study objectives:

  1. To compare the temperature measured using Medisim's thermometers to the temperature measured using mercury or equivalent reference thermometers.
  2. To develop more accurate algorithms for measuring on the forehead as well as behind the ear.
  3. To test the difference between various forehead measurement locations in order to allow more convenient measuring that is not depended on the exact location.
