Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a palpation diagnostic device, which comprises an optical pressure sensor embedded in a holder; wherein the optical pressure sensor is an optical fiber sensor, or a micro-fabricated waveguide sensor to be disposed on a finger or a palm; and the optical pressure sensor is configured to receive an optical signal whose intensity is attenuated when a force is applied on the optical pressure sensors. Therefore, the palpation diagnostic device of the present invention can provide high sensing sensitivity by attenuating the intensity of the optical signal in the optical pressure sensors which a force is applied on, so it can provide precise and immediate information based on quantitative feedback for the users.
