Abstract
A tissue analysis system and method process images to derive a remote PPG perfusion map from PPG amplitude levels obtained from the images as well as a PPG delay map from PPG relative delays between the PPG signals for each image region (pixel) with respect to a reference signal. The images are segmented into one or more tissue regions based on the PPG delay map (or segmentation information identifying tissue regions derived from the PPG delay map are received as input). The different tissue regions have distinct PPG delay characteristics. A level of perfusion can then be determined separately for each tissue region. Thus PPG delay information is used to enable different tissue types to be identified.
