PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a respiratory movement monitoring device capable of acquiring respiration movement signals of respective areas by simply and reproducibly dividing and setting areas to be evaluated.SOLUTION: A respiratory movement measuring apparatus applies bright spots to a body surface of a subject, captures an image of the reflection light with a camera, and measures a respiration rate of the subject. The respiratory movement measuring apparatus: further sets Merkmals as mark positions on the body surface of the subject disposes reflection bodies, the reflectance of which is different from the body surface, on the Merkmals divides the body surface into a plurality of areas by separation lines passing through images of the Merkmals on an observation image and acquires respiratory movement signals by totaling the reflections of the bright spots for each divided area.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】評価すべき領域を,簡便かつ再現性良く分割設定して、各領域の呼吸運動信号を得ることができる呼吸運動モニタ装置。【解決手段】被検者の体表面に輝点を照射して、その反射光をカメラで捉え、被検者の呼吸量を計測する呼吸運動測定装置であって、被検者の体表面上にさらに目印位置であるメルクマールを設定し,これらのメルクマールに,反射率が前記体表面と異なる反射体を配置し,観察画像上で,前記メルクマールの像を通る分離線により前記体表面を複数の領域に分割して,分割された各領域毎の輝点の反射を集計して呼吸運動信号を得る。【選択図】図1
