NON-INVASIVE DEVICE FOR MEASURING GLUCOSA LEVEL IN BLOOD AND METHOD THAT MAKES USE OF THE SAME
ES2621006A1
A device and method that makes use of said device for measuring blood glucose levels non-invasively. To this end, resonance microwave antennas are used, arranged opposite each other with the user's tongue whose glucose level is to be measured between the two antennas. The variations in resonance frequencies in the antennas produced by the changes in the dielectric permittivity of the medium, the tongue, make it possible to determine the glucose level in the user whose glucose level is to be measured from them, so that the responses to the changes can be processed through correlation to determine these glucose levels.
The main technical advantages of this noninvasive system to determine the level of blood glucose over other options currently available are: • The use of tongue as biological tissue to be monitored • The working frequency range • The signal processing performed From the business point of view it is interesting to its low cost, which can make it very competitive in the market
