    Abstract: Provided is a light diffusion device capable of irradiating laser light onto a plurality of locations in a human body in a state in which a distal end portion of an optical transmission cable is placed in the human body. The light diffusion device includes an optical transmission cable including a plurality of cores, and a light refracting portion configured to refract the light emitted from each of the plurality of cores so that irradiation directions thereof are different from each other. With such a configuration, it is possible to irradiate the laser light in a plurality of directions when the distal end of the optical transmission cable is placed in the human body. Therefore, it is possible to change the location where the laser light is irradiated without extracting or re-inserting the optical transmission cable from or into the human body, thereby shortening the time required for photoimmunotherapy.

    Abstract: A pressure sensor includes: a light source that outputs signal light; a sensor optical fiber where the signal light is input and the signal light is propagated with a loss of 0.3 dB/m or more; and an optical receiver that receives the signal light propagated through the sensor optical fiber. Further, pressure applied to the sensor optical fiber is detected on a basis of intensity of the signal light received by the optical receiver.
