ABSTRACT:
A deep-area temperature calculating device441calculates the temperature Tcoreof a deep area on the basis of a first body-surface temperature and second body-surface temperature from body-surface sensors31A and31B, and on the basis of a first intermediate temperature and second intermediate temperature from intermediate sensors32A and32B. Since the temperature Tcoreof the deep area is determined from two body-surface temperatures and two intermediate temperatures, the temperature Tcoreof the deep area can be calculated regardless of the heat resistance of the thermometer without making any assumptions regarding the heat resistance of the area that extends from the deep area of the human body to the body surface. Thereby, the temperature Tcoreof the deep area can be calculated and the body temperature can be measured with high precision regardless of differences in the body type or contact with clothing or bedding.
