    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for predicting the viability of a body tissue in a patient. The system comprises a computing device (1), and a first pressure measuring device (2) for measuring local perfusion pressure in the body tissue of the patient. This measuring device is connected to the computing device. A second pressure measuring device (5) is provided for measuring the systemic perfusion pressure of the patient, said second pressure measuring device being connected to the computing device. A feedback indicator (6) is connected to the computing device and is adapted to indicate the viability of the tissue calculated by the computing device on the basis of the measured local and systemic perfusion pressures. The invention also includes a method of predicting the viability of the body tissue and to the first pressure measuring device.

    Abstract: There is provided a spectroscopy apparatus for measuring fluorescence signals from a photosynthetic object. The spectroscopy apparatus comprises: one or more light excitation sources (26,28) operable to carry out time- varying excitation of the fluorescence from the photosynthetic object; and one or more fluorescence-sensitive detection channels (36,38,44,46) configured to simultaneously record the fluorescence as a function of time with a microsecond to millisecond time resolution and as a function of wavelength with a wavelength resolution of 10 nm or better, responsive to the excitation of the fluorescence from the photosynthetic object by the or each light excitation source (26,28).
