Although noninvasive, continuous monitoring of glucose
concentration in blood and tissues is one of the most challenging
areas in medicine, a wide range of optical techniques has recently
been designed to help develop robust noninvasive methods for
glucose sensing. For the first time in book form, the Handbook of
Optical Sensing of Glucose in Biological Fluids and Tissues
analyzes trends in noninvasive optical glucose sensing and
discusses its impact on tissue optical properties. This handbook
presents methods that improve the accuracy in glucose prediction
based on infrared absorption spectroscopy, recent studies on the
influence of acute hyperglycemia on cerebral blood flow, and the
correlation between diabetes and the thermo-optical response of
human skin. It examines skin glucose monitoring by near-infrared
spectroscopy (NIR), fluorescence-based glucose biosensors, and a
photonic crystal contact lens sensor. The contributors also explore
problems of polarimetric glucose sensing in transparent and turbid
tissues as well as offer a high-resolution optical technique for
noninvasive, continuous, and accurate blood glucose monitoring and
glucose diffusion measurement. Written by world-renowned experts in
biomedical optics and biophotonics, this book gives a complete,
state-of-the-art treatise on the design and applications of
noninvasive optical methods and instruments for glucose sensing.
