ABSTRACT:
An improved oximeter sensor structure for attaching to an appendage of a patient. The emitters and the detector are offset from each other, so that they are not directly opposite each other. This causes the light emitted by the emitters to pass through more blood-perfused tissue to reach the detector than it would on the direct path through the appendage if the emitters and detector were opposite each other.
