Abstract
The use of near infra-red spectroscopy to monitor the oxygenation state of tissue in vivo with surface mounted probes has been reported (1). However selective monitoring of tissue located deep in the body has required surgery to isolate the tissue and position probes on the tissue surface. To eliminate this requirement a catheter-like fiber optic probe was developed to monitor deep muscle oxygenation.
