Embodiment Construction

[0054] figure 1 A temperature sensor of the present invention is shown generally having the reference numeral 10 and comprising a sensor element 12 in the form of a spherical ruby ​​crystal and a light conductor 14 attached to said sensor element and optically connected to the sensor element 12 . In the described embodiment of the temperature sensor 10 according to the invention, only a single light conductor 14 is provided for supplying light with the excitation wavelength for the luminescence of the stimulable medium 13 of the sensor element 12 and for receiving and emitting light from the medium 13 Emission and luminescence induced by the excitation wavelength. The sensor element 12 may comprise a sleeve 15 ( figure 1 ), the sleeve surrounds the medium 13 and connects the sensor element to the light conductor 14 . Optionally, the light guide 14 may be covered by a cladding material 16 ( figure 1 Shown in dashed lines in ), the cladding material itself is preferably conne...

Abstract

In order to provide a temperature sensor or a temperature measuring apparatus having a temperature sensor, which enables direct temperature measurement, in particular even during treatment, in particular even with HF surgical devices, it is proposed that the temperature sensor includes a sensor element with a medium which can be excited to luminescence, in particular fluorescence, and an optical waveguide which is optically connected to the sensor element and is intended to supply light to the medium at an excitation wavelength and / or to pick up and conduct light at a luminescence wavelength of the medium which can be excited to luminescence.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a temperature sensor for a medical engineering system, a temperature measuring device containing the temperature sensor, and a medical engineering system containing the temperature sensor or the temperature measuring device, respectively. Background technique [0002] In medical treatment and therapy, and especially in surgery again, measuring temperature is important in many ways, especially for determining the progress of a treatment or treatment to control it and complete it on a case-by-case basis important. [0003] Using common temperature sensors, an unaffected measurement of the temperature parallel to the performed treatment or treatment measures (in particular surgical interventions again) is not possible in many cases, since there are a large number of influences on the temperature measurement and thus distort what is actually being treated. Determine the environmental factors of the temperature value. [0004] For...
