The invention concerns a measuring device for the optical analysis of a
diagnostic test element (10) comprising a light source (16), a
photodetector (24) and a device (12) for positioning the test element
(10) between the light source (16) and photodetector (24) where the light
source (16) has one or several organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and
the OLEDs (14) for a composite structure with an imaging optics (20)
and/or a photodetector (24) by means of a support substrate.
