ABSTRACT:
Provided are a biological information detecting probe and a biological information measuring apparatus that are easy to handle and can easily carry out highly accurate measurements by improving contact between a surface of a living body and a light sensor while minimizing damage to the body tissue, and a biological information measurement method for implementing the same. The invention also achieves a biological information measuring apparatus that can easily measure biological information concerning deep portions of a living body by improving contact between the surface of the living body and the light sensor, and a method for implementing the same. The biological information detecting probe comprises a raised portion5forming a recessed portion which is pressed against a living tissue in intimate contact relationship, a substrate4,an exit end face9from which detection light exits through one part of the recessed portion, and a light receiving means11which is provided in another part of the recessed portion and into which the detection light is introduced, wherein with the raised portion5and substrate4held pressed against the living tissue, the detection light is passed through the living tissue and introduced into the receiving means11.
