    摘要: The present invention relates to an optical link, comprising an optical converter circuit (16) having an optoelectronic device (18) and circuitry (20) connected to the optoelectronic device (18). The optoelectronic device (18) has a plurality of individual optoelectronic segments (18a-18i). The optical link further comprises an elongated optical guide (14) having a single optical fiber optically connected at a first end to the optoelectronic device (18) and configured to transmit light away from the optoelectronic device (18), wherein the individual optoelectronic segments (18a-18i) have different positions relative to the first end of the optical fiber so that light beams emitted by the optoelectronic segments (18a-18i) are coupled into the optical fiber under different angles. The optoelectronic device (18) is configured to receive from the circuitry (20) on at least some of the segments (18a-18i) a plurality of data streams and optically send the plurality of data streams as spatially diverse data streams into the optical guide (14). The optical link further comprises a photo detector arrangement (28) optically connected to a second end of the optical guide (14) and having a plurality of photo detector segments (28a-28i) arranged to optically receive the plurality of data streams from the optoelectronic device (18), and a processing unit (30) associated with the photo detector arrangement (28) and configured to extract the plurality of data streams from the photo detector arrangement (28).

    摘要: A system SY for determining a tissue type TY of a tissue region TR is provided in which the distal ends OFDE1 . . . n of at least three optical fibers define a plurality of intersecting optical paths IOP1 . . . k within the tissue region TR. A tissue signal Q1 . . . k indicative of a tissue type TY for the respective optical path IOP1 . . . k is generated from said spectral measurement data SMD corresponding to each of the plurality of intersecting optical paths IOP1 . . . k. Each tissue signal Q1 . . . k is compared with a reference threshold QRT for the tissue type, and with an average of the tissue signals QMA. At least a portion of the tissue region is identified as the tissue type TY if i) every tissue signal Q1 . . . k in the tissue region TR indicates that its corresponding tissue is not the tissue type TY in the comparison with the N reference threshold QRT and ii) at least one of the tissue signals Q1 . . . k in the tissue region TR lies between the average QMA of the tissue signals Q1 . . . k and the reference threshold QRT, and a difference Δ between the at least one tissue signal Q1 . . . k and the average QMA of the tissue signals Q1 . . . k exceeds a predetermined value ΔP.

    摘要: The invention relates to an apparatus for determining a property of a tissue, particularly cancer of cervical tissue. A light providing unit (7, 8, 9) provides light for illuminating the tissue (6) and a light detection unit (10) detects light from the tissue, wherein a first signal being indicative of light (11) having been influenced by an epithelium region (R1), a second signal being indicative of light (12) having been influenced by a boundary region (R2) and a third signal being indicative of light (13) having been influenced by a stroma region (R3) are generated, and wherein a tissue property is determined based on the first, second and third signals. This allows for an determination of a tissue property, which is based on a combination of optical properties measured in the three different regions, resulting in an improved determination of the tissue property, in particular in improved cancer detection.
