A method characterized by making modulated light having a predetermined modulation frequency component, incident to a scattering medium, receiving the modulated light having propagated inside the scattering medium to acquire measurement signals, detecting signals of the foregoing modulation frequency component from the measurement signals, obtaining amplitudes and inclinations of phase against modulation angular frequency, of the signals of the foregoing modulation frequency component, calculating a difference between absorption coefficients being primary information, based on a predetermined relation among the amplitudes, the inclinations of phase against modulation angular frequency and the difference between absorption coefficients, and calculating a difference of concentration of an absorptive constituent being secondary information, based on the difference between absorption coefficients.
