Titre: Santorio Santorio, Thermoscope,1612
Légende: Voir la traduction automatique
Instrumentum Primum. Santorio Santorio (March 29, 1561 - February 22, 1636) was a Venetian physiologist, physician, and professor, who introduced the quantitative approach into medicine. He is also known as the inventor of several medical devices. His work De Statica Medicina, written in 1614, saw many publications and influenced generations of physicians. Santorio introduced the thermoscope in the work titled Sanctorii Sanctorii Commentaria in Artem medicinalem Galeni in 1612. A thermoscope is a device that shows changes in temperature. The device was built from a small vase filled with water, attached to a thin vertically rising pipe, with a large empty glass ball at the top. Changes in temperature of the upper ball would exert positive or vacuum pressure on the water below, causing it to rise or lower in the thin column.
