Noninvasive Monitoring of Blood Glucose Using Color-Coded Photoplethysmographic Images of the Illuminated Fingertip Within the Visible and Near-Infrared Range: Opportunities and Questions

Noninvasive blood glucose assays have been promised for many years and various molecular spectroscopy-based methods of skin are candidates for achieving this goal. Due to the small spectral signatures of the glucose used for direct physical detection, moreover hidden among a largely variable back…
