CLINICAL BLOOD EXAMINATION METHOD USING NEAR INFRARED RAY

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a means which irradiates blood or a substance originating from blood with near infrared rays to enable clinical biochemical examination, and the clinical examination of a disease on the basis of the irradiation result. SOLUTION: Blood or the substance originating from blood is irradiated with wavelength light of a wavelength range of 400-2,500 nm or the partial range thereof and the reflected light, transmitted light or transmitted reflected light of the irradiation light is detected to obtain absorbance spectrum data. Thereafter, the absorbance of the measured whole wavelength or specific wavelength in the data is analyzed using a preliminarily formed analyzing model to enable the clinical biochemical examination and the clinical examination of the disease.
