Abstract

Measurements have been carried out using a pulsed laser-Doppler setup. The main advantage of pulsing a laser-diode is that much higher peak powers can be used, allowing a larger source-detector separation, resulting in a larger penetration depth. The method enables e.g. monitoring of cerebral perfusion as well as monitoring perfusion through organs (e.g. kidney).
