Abstract

A new method is studied for estimating the hemoglobin concentration and oxygenation of a local blood layer in a human skin tissue model on the basis of visible and near infrared reflectance spectra. This method uses the iterative Monte Carlo technique for a multi-layered skin tissue model. The numerical simulation was performed to investigate the effects of estimation errors for epidermis and dermis layers on the results for the local blood layer. Experiments with skin tissue phantoms were performed to verify the possibility of this method.
