Abstract
A method for determining a hemoglobin saturation of a volume-oscillating vascular compartment in tissue includes receiving data representing measurements of a number of oscillating hemoglobin concentrations from the tissue and determining the hemoglobin saturation of the volume-oscillating vascular compartment to exclude an effect of an oscillating rate of supply of oxygenated blood to a portion of the tissue including removing a first contribution on one or more of the oscillating hemoglobin concentration measurements from at least one of the measurements, the first contribution being phase offset relative to said measurements.
