Non-Invasive Measurement Of Blood Component Using Retinal Imaging
US Patent:
6305804, Oct 23, 2001
Filed:
Mar 24, 2000
Appl. No.:
9/534782
Inventors:
Mark J. Rice - Johnson City TN
Robert H. Sweat - Lexington KY
James M. Rioux - Lexington KY
William T. Williams - Jonesborough TN
Wilson Routt - Lexington KY

Assignee:
Fovioptics, Inc. - Lexington KY
International Classification:
A61B 310
US Classification:
351221
Abstract:
Illuminating light of selected wavelengths in the visible or infrared range is projected through the pupil of the eye onto the fundus, and the light reflected back and out through the pupil is detected and analyzed, preferably using the area of the optic disk for analyzing the retinal vessels overlying the optic disk. Specific wavelengths of illuminating light may be chosen for each blood component to be analyzed depending on the spectral characteristics of the substance being analyzed. The reflected image from the retina may be used to measure non-photoreactive blood components such as hemoglobin, and photoreactive components such as bilirubin. For the measurement of photoreactive components, images may be taken before and after, or during, illumination of the eye with light at wavelengths which will affect the photoreactive analyte, enabling measurements of the concentration of the analyte.
