Still waiting for the blood glucose monitoring. I wonder what tech remains to be developed.
- Nathanael_M 5y agoIs there a way to non-penetratively monitor blood glucose?
- Tagbert 5y agoI have heard that there are such systems, probably using optical analysis of tissues, but what I heard was that they were not reliable enough for any medical use. More for dietary monitoring.
- hanche 5y agoIt’s a hard problem. Here’s a wikipedia article about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noninvasive_glucose_monitor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noninvasive_glucose_monitor
- tlubinski 5y agowe are working on it (www.diamontech.de) but our device has still the size of a shoebox. I don't think there is a device in a smaller form factor out there that can measure glucose non-invasively (at least with a decent accuracy).
