System for Non-Contact and Multispectral Examination of Blood Supply to Cutaneous Tissue

The presented system for non-contact examination of tissue perfusion is one of the tools for complex examination of human body tissues (skin, subcutaneous) and their mutual interactions, including blood flow and activity under various external stimuli. In our system, optical radiation, with wavelengths of 525 nm, 625 nm, and 940 nm, was used to investigate the perfusion and properties of skin tissue. Our work presents that it is possible to obtain comprehensive information about the cardiovascular system and skin tissue perfusion by a suitable combination of wavelengths, light intensity, and homogeneous illumination distribution with a properly chosen sensing device—a camera. The proposed system consists of an illumination device that emits light of the three wavelengths mentioned above and thus makes it possible to investigate the skin tissue structures and their interrelationships in terms of their blood supply and interactions with each other
