    External reflection Detector

    Tissue:absorption, scattering and diffuse reflection

    A sensor head placed on the skin projects a white light into the underlying tissue via a waveguide. Some of the projected light is absor-bed by the various components of the

    tissue, while some of it is reflected. Another waveguide transmits the light reflected as a result of the physical conditions back to the device. A spectrometer breaks the light down into its separate wavelengths and an electro-nic evaluation unit analyses it.The resulting data is then processed using an algorithmdeveloped by MBR and visualised on the display of thedevice.
