An Exergen temporal thermometer can be purchased at many stores and sites on the web. The biggest sites are Amazon and eBay. The biggest stores are Walmart and Target.
With just a light stroke across the temporal artery area of the forehead, an accurate reproducible temperature is measured in about 3 seconds - eliminating any discomfort caused by a thermometer inserted into the ear, mouth, or rectum. Designed specifically to be completely non-invasive, the TemporalScanner is a most signficant advance, applying Exergen's well-proven Arterial Heat Balance (AHB) technology to the most convenient site possible.
Temporal refers to a physical existence. Non-temporal would be spiritual.

Actually, the skull is not a bone, it is many bones. The temporal bone would be the bone you feel when you touch your temple.
Depends on the thermometer. If it's a weather thermometer, then you use it outside. If it's a body temperature thermometer, then you use it in the mouth or behind.
how do I change my exergen temporal scanner back to Fahrenheit
Exergen Corporation is a world leader in the heart department. The company created the first temporal artery thermometer, and is still used today for taking temperatures.
A temporal artery thermometer is a thermometer that gets a persons body temperature from their temple.
A temporal thermometer can be purchased at stores that sell first aid supplies. A common place to purchased a temporal thermometer is a drug store. Most drug stores employ pharmacists who can answer questions regarding the thermometers.
Exergen Corporation was created in 1980.

There really isn't any other than the different types. Such as temporal, oral, etc.
Three ways of taking a vital temperature are using a digital thermometer orally, using a tympanic thermometer in the ear, or using a temporal artery thermometer on the forehead.
i bought mine 19.95 ......
Your question sounds a bit wrong, so I assume you mean "What type of thermometer is used to measure body temperature" The answer: you can use... a) a normal clinical thermometer b) a digital clinical thermometer c) a forehead thermometer (i.e. FeverTemp) d) ear thermometer (more precise but more expensive) I hope that answers your question.
use a thermometer.We can feel how hot or cold something is. However, sometimes things are just too hot or cold for us to feel safely. At other times we need to know exactly how hot or cold something is. When we need to measure temperature correctly we need to use an instrument called a thermometer. This measures temperature in degrees Celsius [sometimes called centigrade] or degrees Fahrenheit. There are different types of thermometers for different situations. A medical thermometer, for example, needs to be very accurate. It measures in fractions of degrees. When we are ill, even tiny changes in temperature are important. Some thermometers use a liquid that moves up a very fine glass tube. Most room thermometers, and outdoor thermometers are like this. The liquid is either mercury [ which is poisonous] or coloured alcohol. As liquids get warmer they expand [get bigger], and move up the tube. Water expands too, but not as much as alcohol and mercury. Thermometers that might be used by small children are not made of glass. They use a digital display which lights up the temperature. Inside the displays are chemicals that change colour according to the temperature.
