The use of mobile consumer devices as medical diagnostic tools allows standard medical tests to be performed anywhere. Cameras embedded in consumer devices have previously been used as pulse oximetry sensors. However, technical limitations and implementation challenges have not been described. This manuscript provides a critical analysis of pulse oximeter technology and technical limitations of cameras that can potentially impact implementation of pulse oximetry in mobile phones. Theoretical and practical examples illustrate difficulties and recommendations to overcome these challenges.
