Original Abstract Submitted
Techniques for label-free determination of a value a blood property are presented. The techniques may utilize a device that includes an optical objective with at least one lens; a first light source situated so as to provide first light to a body part; a first electronic detector situated to receive light gathered by the optical objective and generate image data, where, at the optical objective, a central axis of the first light is not parallel to a central axis of light that passes to the first electronic detector; an electronic processor communicatively coupled to the first electronic detector and configured to determine the value of the blood property based at least in part on the image data; and an output interface communicatively coupled to the at least one electronic processor and configured to provide the value of the blood property.
