“We are pleased to see the TemporalScanner making its way into popular culture, which is a reflection of the wide acceptance of Exergen’s groundbreaking innovation in medical care,” said Dr. Francesco Pompei, Exergen CEO. “Temporal artery thermometers are fast, easy to use and non-invasive, enabling medical professionals to accurately assess patients while ensuring a comfortable overall experience.”
Exergen was featured in episode 11, “Intervention,” during Chicago Med’s first season. Chicago Med, produced by Emmy Award-winning Dick Wolf, provides insight into the lives of the healthcare providers working at the city’s largest trauma center who use cutting edge technology and innovation to enhance patient lives.

More than two billion temperatures are taken each year with the TemporalScanner in thousands of hospitals and clinics, and millions of homes. Supported by more than 60 peer-reviewed published studies covering all ages from preterm infants to geriatrics, and all care areas from hospitals to homes, the Exergen TemporalScanner is the #1 thermometer in proven accuracy, and the #1 preference of pediatricians, nurses, and moms.
