A statistical relation between 408 MHz galactic continuum background temperature (T408) and dispersion measure, position, radio-luminosity of 325 pulsars (PSR) was obtained by means of multiple stepwise regression analysis. This relation shows that PSR may be considered as probes of the galactic places where the observed T408 and the electron density (ne) of the interstellar medium (ISM), derived by large-scale models, are correlated. The ne of this relation is that of all the electrons of the ISM which contribute to T408 with thermal and non-thermal emissions. Also a contribution from the intrinsic luminosity of PSR to T408 cannot be excluded.
