Analytical techniques based on sensors for medicine require direct measurements (either non- invasive or minimally invasive ones) which must be robust, reliable, safe and fast. The most frequently used techniques in this respect are optical methods. Recent developments in optics and optoelectronics provide powerful means for innovations in technology, especially in biomedical sciences. Optical techniques and sensor devices will foster non-invasive or minimally invasive medical procedures in diagnostics and therapy. One of the extensively growing fields is laser medicine, including such areas as infrared as well as fluorescence spectroscopy for tissue diagnostics and the visible and near infrared range, i.e., for on-line quality control of human blood or blood products. For the diagnostics of infectious diseases ion-mobility spectroscopy can be used for future applications in monitoring or safety control. The use of optoelectronics can also play an important role in technological processes of food production and in controlling the final products. Therefore, appropriate sensors and methodologies must be developed. The applicability of optical and fiber-optical methods and some non-optical methods is discussed, with due consideration to characterization and monitoring in biomedicinal diagnostics.
