With an extensive list of references on glucose sensing, glucose monitoring, and light-tissue interaction, this handbook analyzes trends in noninvasive optical glucose sensing and discusses its impact on tissue optical properties. It presents an up-to-date review of commercialized glucose sensors and the underlying science behind their functionality, discusses the fundamentals and basic research of light-tissue interaction, and describes biological fluids that contain glucose on physiological and hyperphysiological levels. The book also details new optical techniques for glucose diffusion coefficient measurements in human tissues and explains glucose-induced optical clearing effects in tissue and blood.
