In many areas of medical diagnostics, for example for blood glucose measurement, optical test elements (112) are used. A system (110; 410) for evaluating such test elements (112) is proposed, which includes a test element (112) and a mobile data transmission device (120), in particular a mobile telephone (120) with a camera (122) and optionally a holding device (126). The holding device (126) has at least one holder (138) for receiving a test element (112) and a connecting device (128) for spatially fixing and / or positioning the holding device (126) to the camera (122) of the mobile data transmission device (120). , After application of a sample, for example a drop of blood, to the test element (112), image information of an optical test field (114) of the test element (112) is recorded by means of the camera (122) and evaluated by means of an evaluation method. Optionally, an evaluation server (412) can be used for this evaluation, which communicates with the mobile data transmission device (120) via a mobile radio network (414). |
