Abstract
Apparatus for the non-invasive measurement of parameters relating to a biological tissue by spectroscopy, in particular with infra-red light, is described and comprises a plurality of light sources each of which can emit a light signal with one or more predetermined wavelengths, towards the tissue, a light detector for detecting a light signal transmitted by the tissue as a result of the illumination by the sources, and driving means for the light emitted by the sources, for modulating the light signal emitted by each of the sources, the apparatus further comprising processing means to which the driving means are coupled in order to control the modulation of the light signals emitted by the sources in a 'spread-spectrum' manner. A method for the non-invasive measurement of parameters relating to a biological tissue by spectroscopy, in particular with infra-red light, is also described.
