Abstract
In a biophotonic measurement device based on the principles of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), in order to realize appropriate conditions in any light-source/detector arrangement and various required specifications, a photoirradiation moduleincluding a light source, a photodetection moduleincluding a photodetector, and a central control/analysis unitare provided. The central control/analysis unitacquires correspondence relations between each of photodetection units and photoirradiation units by using a correspondence acquiring unit. The photoirradiation moduleand the photodetection moduleswitch signal detection methods at each measurement point by utilizing an evaluation function value determined by detection output of the photodetectorso that the plurality of signal detection methods are mixable, and the high-precision and optimum biophotonic measurement device is realized.
