Abstract
The inventive subject matter is directed to point-of-care analytical devices that accurately determine the volume of test samples using image analysis to improve the accuracy of test results performed on the sample. Most preferably, the image analysis is based on rate changes in optical saturation that parallels sample saturation in a porous structure containing the sample.
