Moor Instruments manufacture a wide range of probes designed to help you assess flow from almost any tissue. We are more than happy to advise on your particular application but hope too that the following general notes are useful.

Just plug in to start monitoring! Three probe holders are available with dedicated double sided adhesive pads offering separation of 30, 40 and 50mm between emitting and detecting heads.

This alters the measurement depth with a wider separation offering deeper penetration.

Access ports are also provided enabling you to add laser Doppler (moorLAB-LDF) or white light spectroscopy probes (moorLAB-OXY) for simultaneous tissue blood flow and superficial tissue oxygenation.

Probe materials selected are biocompatible for safe human use allowing cleaning/ disinfection between patients.
