Cover Story: Non-invasive glucose monitoring techniques have the potential to greatly improve the self-management of diabetes. A range of optical spectroscopy technologies have been proposed for glucose sensing. Some of the most promising techniques are infrared spectroscopy, which measures the optical absorption of near infrared or mid infrared radiation by glucose; Raman spectroscopy, which uses inelastic scattering; and optical coherence tomography, an optical interferometry technique. Optical measurements can be affected by spectra from other molecules, high noise levels, and limited penetration depth. Research continues to overcome these challenges and achieve a non-invasive optical sensor with accuracy comparable to that of current invasive glucose sensing devices. View this paper
