NIRS SENSOR ASSEMBLY INCLUDING ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE AND OPTICALLY TRANSPARENT EMI SHIELDING

摘要

A near infrared spectrophotometric sensor assembly for non-invasive monitoring of blood oxygenation levels in a subject's body is provided. The assembly includes at least one light source, at least one light detector operable to detect light emitted by the light source, an electromagnetic interference shielding disposed around at least a portion of the light detector, wherein the electromagnetic interference shielding includes an electrically conductive substrate that is optically transparent, and one or both of a light blocking sheet disposed relative to at least one of the light detectors and an encapsulating material.
