Abstract
Provided is a photoacoustic measuring apparatus. The apparatus comprises a light source configured to provide laser light of a predetermined wavelength to a measurement target, a photoacoustic detector configured to detect a photoacoustic signal generated from the measurement target receiving the laser light emitted from the light source, a contact sensor configured to measure a bioimpedance of the measurement target, and a controller configured to determine whether the photoacoustic measuring apparatus is in proper contact with the measurement target based on a bioimpedance value measured using the contact sensor.
