Fluorescent agent concentration measuring apparatus, dose control apparatus, administration system, fluorescent agent concentration measuring method, and dose control method

A fluorescent agent concentration measuring method comprising:

• a fluorescence detection step of detecting fluorescence from a sample containing a body fluid taken from a living body administered with a fluorescent drug;
• a fluorescent agent concentration calculation step of calculating the concentration of the drug in the living body, based on a detection signal from the fluorescence detection step;
• and
• a peak time estimation step of estimating the peak time of the concentration of the drug in the living body tissue, based on the elapsed time after administration of the drug to the living body and the calculated concentration of the drug.

A dose control method comprising:

• a fluorescence detection step of detecting fluorescence from a sample containing a body fluid taken from a living body administered with a fluorescent drug;
• a fluorescent agent concentration calculation step of calculating the concentration of the drug in the living body, based on a detection signal from the fluorescence detection step;
• a peak time estimation step of estimating the peak time of the concentration of the drug in the living body tissue, based on the elapsed time after administration of the drug to the living body and the calculated concentration of the drug;
• an administration start judgment step of judging whether a predetermined time has elapsed or not and judging the start of administration of the drug when the predetermined time has elapsed;
• a dose setting step of setting at least one of the dose and the administration time of the drug, based on the predetermined dose information of the drug after the judgment of the start of administration in the administration start judgment step;
• and
• an output step of performing at least one of functions of allowing the dose to be displayed and allowing the drug to be administered automatically, based on the dose of the drug set in the dose setting step.
