[Measurement of myocardial temperature with infrared radio-thermometer in cardiovascular surgery].
We used an infrared radio-thermometer for measurement of myocardial temperature in cardiovascular surgery and a high correlation was observed when it was compared with a contact thermometer. This thermometer is characterized by the fact that it can be used in a non-contact remote-control manner either in a moving body or in a dark location. It is expected that this thermometer will be increasingly used in the clinical area in the future.
