Sensor configuration

Abstract

The present invention relates to a sensor configuration () for non-invasive measurement of parameters of a body tissue with a sensor unit () and a sensor mat () for detachable placement of the sensor configuration () on a body surface (). Furthermore the sensor unit () of the sensor configuration () is connectible to a contact head (), which is designed for electrical contacting of the sensor unit () and for supply of light from a light source to the sensor unit (), the sensor unit () being designed as a flexible printed circuit board with optical components, at least comprising a light detector device (), in order to detect light that is emitted into the body tissue and has passed through the latter, a first contact means () and conducting tracks () for operative connection of the sensor unit () to the contact head (). The sensor mat () of the sensor configuration () has a multi-layered structure, with a lower layer (), which has a lower contact surface for contact on the body surface () and an upper contact surface for contact of the sensor unit (), whereby openings () are provided which are aligned with the optical components of the sensor unit (), and form an optical passage, and with an upper layer (), which is connected to the upper contact surface of the lower layer () in a way detachable from one another.
