Abstract
This disclosure provides transabdominal fetal oximetry (TFO) that uses frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) time-domain near-infrared spectroscopy to measure time-resolved reflectance values of light signals collected from a maternal-fetal multilayer tissue structure. In various embodiments, the disclosed FMCW time-domain near-infrared spectroscopy is configured to function as an optical interferometer that uses two frequency-swept laser sources of different center wavelengths λand λas probe lights to detect optical property in vascular tissues of the maternal-fetal multilayer tissue structure. The FMCW near-infrared spectroscopy is configured to collect light signals returned from the multilayer structure and generate a time-resolved reflectance curve based on the collected light signals.
