Research Abstract |
A catheter based on hollow-optical fiber with an ATR prism at the distal end is proposed for diagnosis of atherosclerosis. By using this catheter, infrared absorption spectra of inner wall of vessel is measured in vivo. In this study, hollow-optical fiber that is suited to ATR probes are designed and fabricated. Improvements of the probe and the measurement system made in vivo measurement of biological samples such as oral mucosa possible.
