Abstract

An information processing device (16) acquires the local impedance at a lesion of a subject, and determines the state of the lesion, such as inflammation, on the basis of the local impedance. The healing of a lesion is typically affected by the muscle mass of the patient. Meanwhile, the muscle mass of the patient is unlikely to be affected by a change in a locally occurring lesion. Accordingly, the information processing device (16) predicts a healing time for the lesion on the basis of the determined state of the lesion and the muscle mass of the subject.

Abstract

Since a plurality of electrode parts (14) is connected to a main body part (12) via a cable (16) in a body composition analyzer (10), the combination of electrode parts (14) disposed on a subject to be measured can be changed according to the body condition of the subject to be measured. One estimation formula is then selected from different estimation formulae on the basis of the combination of the electrodes disposed on the subject to be measured. The body composition of the subject to be measured is calculated on the basis of the selected estimation formula and a biological impedance value obtained by causing a current to flow through the electrode parts.

Abstract

In an inspection head (20) that is used for a device to inspect periodontal diseases, measurement light beams (B11) to (B15) which are parallel light beams are emitted from an emitting surface (32) of an emitting unit (30). A reflection member (40) is provided in which a reflecting surface (41) is formed at a position opposing the emitting surface (32) of the emitting unit (30). The emitting surface (32) and the reflecting surface (41) sandwich teeth and gums therebetween, and the measurement light beams (B11) to (B15) are emitted. In addition to the reflection of the measurement light beams (B11) to (B15) from the teeth and gums, the reflection of the measurement light beams (B11) to (B15) from the reflecting surface (41) is used to generate an interference signal. An interference signal with a good S/N can thus be obtained.

Abstract

The objective of the present invention is to suppress a deterioration in residual chlorine concentration measuring accuracy attributable to adhesion of oxidation-reduction reaction products and the like onto a working electrode, without increasing the workload on the user, and without increasing the size, the complexity, or the price of the residual chlorine meter. A residual chlorine meter 1 is provided with: a measuring circuit 12 for measuring the residual chlorine concentration of a test liquid E on the basis of a voltage between a working electrode 2 and a reference electrode 3, with the working electrode 2 and the reference electrode 3 immersed in the test liquid E; a pre-treatment voltage applying circuit 11 for applying a pre-treatment voltage between the working electrode 2 and the reference electrode 3; and a microcontroller 14 which controls the measuring circuit 12 and the pre-treatment voltage applying circuit 11 in such a way that the pre-treatment voltage is applied, application of the pre-treatment voltage is then stopped, and the residual chlorine concentration in the test liquid E is then measured. Further, the pre-treatment voltage applying circuit 11 preferably sweeps the pre-treatment voltage.

Abstract

In order to reduce loss of light during examination of periodontal disease, each of a plurality of optical fibers (21)-(25) is held by a contact part (35) so as to be independently movable in the optical axis direction. Since the optical fibers (21)-(25) are independently movable in the optical axis direction, emission end faces of the optical fibers (21)-(25) can be closely attached to a tooth (TO) or gum (GU). This allows reflection light from the tooth (TO) or gum (GU) to enter the optical fibers (21)-(25) with reduced loss of said light.
