Abstract From the Canadian patent

A liver function testing apparatus measures values .DELTA.logT1 and .DELTA.logT2, corresponding to pulse wave signals obtained upon passage through a prescribed optical path in vital tissue, n times when a sensor having first and second light sources and a light receiving element is attached to a testee before injection of a specific dye. A value .alpha.0 is calculated by a two-variable statistical computation as to n .DELTA.logT1 and n .DELTA.logT2 on the basis of an operation expression of logT1 = .alpha.0logT2 and .DELTA.logT1 and, AlogT2 corresponding to pulse wave signals are measured in response to intensity levels of first light and second light passing through the vital tissue from …
