简要总结
This study aims to evaluate the Zenalux IM1, an optical spectroscopy device with a pressure sensor. The pressure sensor is intended to overcome the inconsistencies attributable to variations in use of the device. This study will involve using the device on healthy volunteers. Three tissue parameters will be used to analyze the pressure effects in two ways: within- and across-subject variability. Measurements will be taken under the tongue and on the inside of the cheek. The device is noninvasive and is approved for preclinical use.
详细描述
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY:
- There exist significant systematic and random errors in the in vivo spectroscopic measurement of tissue hemoglobin concentrations, blood oxygenation, and scattering coefficient due to uncontrolled probe-to-tissue interface and the lack of a real-time calibration.
- It is possible to design and engineer a fiber optic sensor to perform accurate and reproducible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) for noninvasive quantification of tissue physiology and morphology in vivo. Features such as probe pressure control and instrument self-calibration will improve signal-to-noise ratios by removing user bias from optical measurements.
STUDY OBJECTIVES
- Evaluation of the pressure sensor in healthy volunteers to determine the minimum contact pressure required for spectroscopic measurements
