What is used to receive beams of light?(a) Plastic fibre(b) Photo diode(c) He-Ne Laser(d) CO2 LaserI got this question during an interview for a job.The question is from PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) topic in chapter Telemedicine Technology of Biomedical Instrumentation

Answer»

The CORRECT answer is (a) Plastic fibre

To explain I would say: In principle, light from a low power (5 mW) He–Ne laser is coupled into a quartz fibre and transmitted to the skin. The light is reflected from both the non-moving tissues (REFERENCE BEAM) and moving red blood cells (Doppler-shifted beam). The TWO beams are received by a plastic fibre and transmitted back to a photo-diode where optical heterodyning takes place.
