A measurement condition setting fixture 2 is secured to a measurement site 1 of a living body prior to the measurement. At the time of measurement, a light irradiation section 3 and a light receiving section 5 of a measuring optical system are respectively attached and secured to a light irradiation section securing section 10 and a light receiving section securing section 11 of the measurement condition setting fixture 2. Thus, the measurement site 1 and the measuring optical system are secured to each other, and desirable measurement conditions can be realized. Moreover, the measurement conditions can be maintained throughout the measurement. After the measurement is completed, the measurement site 1 can be removed from the measuring optical system by detaching the light irradiation section 3 and the light receiving section 5 from the light irradiation section securing section 10 and the light receiving section securing section 11. When the measurement is performed again, the desirable measurement conditions can be reproduced merely by attaching the light irradiation section 3 and the light receiving section 5 to the light irradiation section securing section 10 and the light receiving section securing section 11.

1. A measurement condition setting fixture for setting measurement conditions, including a positional relationship between a prescribed site of a living body and a measuring optical system at desirable conditions in measurement of living body information, including irradiating the prescribed site with light from the measuring optical system and obtaining living body information based on the light obtained from the prescribed site, the measurement condition setting fixture comprising:a measurement site securing section that can be attached to the prescribed site; and at least one measuring optical system securing section, which is adapted for having selectively coupled thereto a part of the measuring optical system, for securing the part of the measuring optical system and the prescribed site in a prescribed positional relationship when the part of the measuring optical system is coupled to the measuring optical system securing section, wherein the part of the measuring optical system is coupled to the at least one measuring optical system securing section at the time of measurement thereby realizing the desirable measurement conditions, and the part of the measuring optical system is detached from the measuring optical system securing section when no measurement is performed, and wherein the positional relationship between the prescribed site of the living body and the measuring optical system does not change when the part of the measuring optical system is attached, detached and then reattached to the at least one measuring optical system securing section.
