Abstract
A method of determining concentration of an analyte in a body fluid using a mobile device having a camera is disclosed. In the inventive method, the camera is used to take a series of calibration images of a region of interest of an object. The calibration images differ in their brightness. A key calibration figure is derived from each calibration image, the key calibration images being characteristic for a tone mapping function of the mobile device. A probable tone mapping function of the mobile device is determined by taking into account the key calibration figures. An analysis image is taken of at least part of a test field of an optical test strip, the test field having a body fluid applied thereto. Analyte concentration is determined from the analysis image of the test field by taking into account the probable tone mapping function of the mobile device.
