Current Research
2007: Vicente Azorin Peris, Sijung Hu, and Peter R. Smith:
A research group that was investigating a custom Monte Carlo (MC) platform in the generation of opto-physiological models of motion artefact and perfusion in pulse oximetry. Because of the growing capability of tissue in literature, Simulation of light tissue interaction of MC is given helpful information for optical bio-monitoring research. However, there are some limitation that Pulse Oximetry has right now such as motion –induced artifact and loss of signal quality during low perfusion, So to develop the pulse oxymetry more useful. They improved it to use in determing the effects of perfusion, haemodynamics and tissue probe optical coupling on transillumination at different positions of the human finger. The results of MC simulations indicate a useful and predictable output from the platform.
