DETECTING AND MAPPING INFLAMED ZONES IN A LIVING TISSUE

摘要

The invention concerns a method for detecting and mapping inflamed zones in living tissues and a device for implementing said method. The method is characterised in that it consists in subjecting the tissues to be analysed to a luminous excitation with a predetermined spectral domain, acquiring at least the raw fluorescence signal of the porphyrins for a plurality of measurement points, and in determining, for each measurement point, the intensity of the fluorescence for the wavelengths characteristic of endogenous porphyrins.
