ABSTRACT Objective: The objective of this feasibility study was to test an optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based system for noninvasive, accurate, and continuous monitoring of blood (as opposed to interstitial) glucose concentration in subjects with diabetes. OCT uses low coherence light with precise depth focusing ability to measure changes in the microvasculature structure for glucose detection. Research Design and Methods: Thirty-three subjects with diabetes had blood glucose concentrations evaluated using simultaneous capillary and OCT-based device (Sentris-100(), ...
