Title: Determination of a measure of a glycation end-product or disease state using tissue fluorescence
Inventor: HULL L EDWARD
IPC: G01N/
Filed: 2004-10-26
Abstract: A method of determining a measure of a tissue state (e.g., glycation end-product or disease state) in an individual is disclosed. A portion of the individual~s tissue is illuminated with excitation light from a light source subsystem (A) and light emitted by the tissue due to fluorescence of a chemical within the tissue responsive to the excitation light is detected by a detection subsystem (C). The detected light can be combined with a model stores in the signal processor (D), which relates fluorescence with a measure of tissue state to determine a tissue state. Correction techniques can be used to reduce errors due to the detection of non-fluorescent light, such as the reflectance of the tissue. Other biologic information can also be sued in combination with the fluorescence properties to aid in the determination of a measure of tissue state.
