In vivo life sign application of dielectric spectroscopy and non-invasive glucose monitoring

Previous developments of dielectric spectroscopy based non-invasive continuous monitoring devices have indicated that the measured impedances of the skin and underlying tissue can be influenced by a number of perturbing parameters such as changes in humidity, sweating and blood perfusion. Therefore successful glucose monitoring requires a range of sensors to be developed and combined in a multisensor concept to measure changes in such perturbing parameters. This work evaluates the feasibility of using the developed components of such a multisensor system to make corrections to the impedance measurements.
