Abstract
An apparatus for determining a thickness of a layer of fat of an organism, the apparatus comprising a plurality of electromagnetic radiation sources adapted for illuminating the layer of fat with a plurality of pulses of electromagnetic radiation, at least one electromagnetic radiation detector adapted for detecting detection signals indicative of the pulses of electromagnetic radiation after transmission through the layer of fat, and a determining unit adapted for determining a plurality of values of the thickness of the layer of fat based on an analysis of a plurality of ratios between the detection signals, wherein only those values are used for calculating an average thickness of the layer of fat which values result in deviations from the average thickness of less than a predetermined threshold value.
