Abstract

La lumière d'aiguille de l'invention, qui sert d'instrument d'éclairage de cavité corporelle, comprend une pièce d'insertion allongée s'insérant dans une cavité corporelle. Un guide optique, conçu pour mettre en faisceau une pluralité de fibres optiques, s'introduit à travers la pièce d'insertion. La lumière d'aiguille comprend un capteur de température comportant des thermocouples qui détectent la température ambiante de la pointe de la pièce d'insertion. Au moins l'un des thermocouples comprend un fil métallique noyé dans le guide optique; et une section de contact du thermocouple est exposée sur le côté pointe d'une face d'extrémité d'émission du guide optique. Ainsi, la température de la lumière d'éclairage émise depuis la face d'extrémité d'émission du guide optique peut être détectée directement.
