MIT researchers develop noninvasive device for rapid blood glucose monitoring

news-medical.net

MIT researchers developed a noninvasive device that accurately measures blood glucose through the skin in under a minute. The compact Raman spectroscopy device uses physically interpretable optical signals, showing comparable accuracy to commercial continuous glucose monitors in initial tests. This technology offers a promising step toward truly noninvasive, point-of-care glucose monitoring, potentially reducing reliance on current methods.
