A Mini Laser-Doppler Flow Monitor, With A Diode Laser And The Detection Integrated In A Probe, II

A simple, low cost laser-Doppler flow monitor was developed. The instrument contains a diode laser two photodiodes, all integrated in a probe of small dimensions. The probe can be attached directly on or in tissue for the measurement of blood flow velocities. Out of two different prototypes, one prototype is described, together with test measurements.
