1. A method comprising:
providing a sensor head of a tissue oximetry device comprising:
a plurality of detectors arranged on a face of the sensor head; and
first and second light sources arranged in a line on the face of the sensor head, wherein a first detector of the detectors is a first distance from the first light source,
a second detector of the detectors is a second distance from the second light source,
a third detector of the detectors is a third distance from the first light source,
the first distance and the second distance are equal, and
the first distance and the third distance are not equal; and
performing a calibration of the tissue oximetry device comprising determining an offset between the first and second light sources by collecting information from the first and the second detectors and not from the third detector to determine a correction due to a variation between the first and second light sources.
