A new signal processing in laser Doppler flowmetry

Abstract Due to simplicity and ease of use, the laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) has found applications in various areas of research related to non-invasive diagnosis of blood microcirculation. In fact, LDF still has a number of unsolved problems that limit its day-to-day use in clinical practice. Current report discusses the new approach for the LDF signal processing, that allows to receive a new diagnostic information. The proposed algorithm provides information on the quantitative distribution of the red blood cells velocities in the probing volume of biological tissue when applying different provocative effects
