Zusammenfassung:A device and systems are disclosed for characterization of an object at an intravascular location based on detection of reflected light, wherein a detected reflected light intensity is measured at each wavelength or wavelength range of a set. At least one ratio is determined between the detected reflected light intensities, including at least two discrete wavelengths or wavelength ranges. Based on the at least one ratio, a type and/or composition of the object at the intravascular location can be determined. This provides a simple analytic system when compared to a full spectroscopic analysis.
