Claim 6:
7. A device for assessment of oscillatory function of the skin microcirculation, the device comprising:
a means for illumination of a skin of said subject with exciting light capable to induce NADH fluorescence;
a means for detecting and measuring NADH fluorescence signal emitted from the skin;
a processing unit which is configured to perform the following:
receiving and recording time course of intensity of the NADH fluorescence signal,
fitting of a baseline about which the NADH fluorescence signal oscillates to the time course of the fluorescence signal, and
determination a mean squared error of deviation of the NADH fluorescence signal from the fitted baseline as a parameter of oscillatory function of the skin microcirculation,, and
a means for displaying a result of determination of said parameter of oscillatory function.
