The conventional hepatic function tests have many deficiencies, such as large blood sampling, non-continuous and etc., so a new non-invasive test method is studied. The dye of indocyanine green (ICG) is intravenously injected. Afterward two spectrum signals of the hemoglobin and the ICG are picked w...
