ADVANTAGES OF TEMPORAL ARTERY (T.A.)
TEMPERATURE
The ProScan
TM
Non-Contact thermometer has been designed
to produce an instant forehead temperature reading without
any contact with the temporal artery. As this artery is quite
close to the surface of the forehead skin, it allows precise
reading of temperature. This artery is linked to the heart by
the carotid artery which is directly linked to the aorta. It forms
part of the main trunk of arterial system. The efficiency, speed
and comfort of taking a temperature from this area make it
ideal compared to other temperature reading methods.
