Title:
METHODS FOR NONINVASIVE ANALYTE SENSING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001012060
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Methods for measuring analyte concentration within a tissue using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Radiation is generated, and a first portion of the radiation is directed to the tissue to generate backscattered radiation. A second portion of the radiation is directed to a reflector to generate reference radiation. The backscattered radiation and the reference radiation is detected to produce an interference signal. The analyte concentration is calculated using the interference signal.
