The present disclosure relates to noninvasive methods, devices, and systems for measuring various blood constituents or analytes, such as glucose. In an embodiment, a light source comprises LEDs and super-luminescent LEDs. The light source emits light at at least wavelengths of about 1610 nm, about 1640 nm, and about 1665 nm. In an embodiment, the detector comprises a plurality of photodetectors arranged in a special geometry comprising one of a substantially linear substantially equal spaced geometry, a substantially linear substantially non-equal spaced geometry, and a substantially grid geometry.

Disclosed herein is a housing assembly configured to attach to a body surface of a patient and comprising at least one opening; a skin sensor movably disposed in the at least one opening of the housing assembly; and wherein the housing assembly is configured to move independently relative to the skin sensor when an external force is applied to the housing assembly.

A finger insert for use with a nailfold imaging device includes a housing to receive the user's finger and an immersion substance (e.g., immersion oil), and a deformable pad that holds the user's finger in place during imaging, as well as prevent bubble formation in the substance. The housing includes a transparent wall to facilitate imaging of the finger. The transparent wall includes multiple angled portions that prevent or reduce contact between the nailfold and the wall, to ensure sufficient blood flow through the nailfold region for imaging.

A reusable portion includes a first connector and a light emitter. A disposable portion includes a support, a second connector and a light detector. The support has a translucent portion and adapted to be attached on a body of a subject. The second connector is supported by the support and configured to couple with the first connector. The light detector is supported by the support and configured to output a signal corresponding to an amount of light incident on the light detector. Under a condition that the first connector and the second connector are coupled, the light emitter is disposed so as to face the translucent portion, so that the first connector is enabled to detect the signal via the second connector.

A multi-organ imaging system including a camera lens, a stationary, multi-examination illumination unit (SMEIU), and an attachment holder is provided. An industrial camera unit (ICU) for imaging multiple organs, for example, ear, nose, throat, and skin, is housed in a camera body. The camera lens has a fixed focal length and an iris for optimizing examination and imaging of the organs. The SMEIU is integrated to the camera body and includes illuminators arranged in a geometrical configuration. The attachment holder accommodates an organ examination attachment selected for examining an organ. The illuminators, in optical communication with one or more reflective surfaces in the organ examination attachment, produce shadowless illumination during examination and imaging of each organ, without requiring replacement of the SMEIU for examining each organ. A display unit, accommodated in a display holder detachably attached to the camera body, assists in aiming the camera lens and visualizing each organ.

A measurement system is provided with an array of laser diodes with one or more Bragg reflectors. At least a portion of the light generated by the array is configured to penetrate tissue comprising skin. A detection system configured to: measure a phase shift, and a time-of-flight, of at least a portion of the light from the array of laser diodes reflected from the tissue relative to the portion of the light generated by the array; generate one or more images of the tissue; detect oxy- or deoxy-hemoglobin in the tissue; non-invasively measure blood in blood vessels within or below a dermis layer within the skin; measure one or more physiological parameters based at least in part on the non-invasively measured blood; and measure a variation in the blood or physiological parameter over a period of time.

An obstructive sleep apnea detection device including an optical engagement surface adapted to engage a user's skin; a light source adapted to emit light from the optical engagement surface; a photodetector adapted to detect light at the optical engagement surface and to generate a detected light signal; a position sensor adapted to determine patient sleeping position; a controller adapted to determine and record in memory blood oxygen saturation values computed from the detected light signal and user position information from the position sensor; and a housing supporting the optical engagement surface, the photodetector, the light source, the position sensor, and the controller.

A measurement system is provided with an array of laser diodes to generate light having one or more optical wavelengths. A detection system is provided with at least one photo-detector, a lens and a spectral filter at an input to the at least one photo-detector. The measurement system is further configured to transmit at least a portion of the output signal, indicative of an output status, to a cloud service over a transmission link. The cloud service is configured to receive the output status, to generate processed data based on the received output status, and to store the processed data, and wherein the cloud service is capable of storing a history of at least a portion of the received output status over a specified period of time.

The present disclosure discloses a wearable device for measuring physiological parameters of a subject while being worn. The device includes one or more sensors that perform the measurement of the physiological parameters. The sensors can be selected from either a light-based sensor or displacement sensor. The device includes a skin contact member that has a skin contact surface facing an external side of the device that faces the skin of the subject. During measurements of one of the sensors, the contact surface engages the skin of the subject to allow performing measurements by at least one sensor. The light-based sensor is configured to perform the measurement via the skin contact surface, and the displacement sensor is configured to sense the displacement of the skin contact surface. For allowing accurate performance of the measurements, the skin contact surface is required to displace smoothly in response to contact or pressure by the skin of the subject thereon. Furthermore, the design of the skin contact surface should allow functional engagement with the skin of the subject. Thus, the skin contact member is integrally formed with a first end of a flexible member allowing the smooth displacement thereof. A housing of the device is integral with a second end of the flexible member such that the skin contact member displaces along at least one axis with respect to the static housing. The integration of the three elements, the skin contact member, the flexible member, and the housing forms a continuous structure, which is advantageous and allows to obtain the desired accuracy of the fine measurements. The integration of the three parts is typically performed by one or more over-molding processes.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for detecting carious lesions are described herein. In an example, the systems in an optical interrogator including a single-pixel photodetector responsive to short-wave infrared light and operatively coupled to a controller. In an example the optical interrogator includes a light engine for emitting light, a scanning mirror assembly and a single-pixel photodetector. In an example, the methods include causing the light engine to emit light having wavelengths in a range of about 900 nm to about 1,700 nm; selectively directing the light over different portions of a tooth with a scanning mirror assembly to provide scattered light; and correlating scattered light signals generated by the single-pixel photodetector in response to the scattered light with the portion of the tooth.
