Abstract
A device and method in which image scanning circuitry acquires imaging information of an object, and thermal detection circuitry is disposed in close proximity to the image scanning circuitry. The thermal detection circuitry estimates a temperature of the image scanning circuitry by calculating a thermal transfer of heat passing from the image scanning circuitry to the thermal detection circuitry.
