Abstract

Techniques and systems for using spectroscopy, and/or image-based sensing with an intravascular blood pump are provided. The techniques generally include capturing a spectral response to light of a measured tissue and/or blood. Based on the specific needs, the method may include, e.g., determining a type of the measured tissue based on the spectral response, determining if the type of the measured tissue matches a target tissue type, determining a health of the measured tissue based on the spectral response, determining a treatment plan based on the health of the measured tissue, determining a type and/or quantity of components and/or characteristics in the blood, and/or determining a degree of heart recovery based on the type and/or quantity of the components and/or characteristics in the blood.
