Research abstract
Lightouch Medical uses tissue modulated, near infrared Raman spectroscopy to monitor blood glucose and other analytes in human figertips noninvasivey. using this proprietary and completely painless technique, LighTouch is able to measure blood glucose concentrations with accuracy and recision equal to standard fingerstick tests in the entire relevant range of blood glucose levels including 70-110 mg/dl and below. The proposed effort relates to development of an improved tissue modulator.
