Handbook of Optical Sensing of Glucose in Biological Fluids and Tissues
Author: Valery V. Tuchin
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9781584889755
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 744
Book Description
Although noninvasive, continuous monitoring of glucose concentration in blood and tissues is one of the most challenging areas in medicine, a wide range of optical techniques has recently been designed to help develop robust noninvasive methods for glucose sensing. For the first time in book form, the Handbook of Optical Sensing of Glucose in Biological Fluids and Tissues analyzes trends in noninvasive optical glucose sensing and discusses its impact on tissue optical properties. This handbook presents methods that improve the accuracy in glucose prediction based on infrared absorption spectroscopy, recent studies on the influence of acute hyperglycemia on cerebral blood flow, and the correlation between diabetes and the thermo-optical response of human skin. It examines skin glucose monitoring by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR), fluorescence-based glucose biosensors, and a photonic crystal contact lens sensor. The contributors also explore problems of polarimetric glucose sensing in transparent and turbid tissues as well as offer a high-resolution optical technique for noninvasive, continuous, and accurate blood glucose monitoring and glucose diffusion measurement. Written by world-renowned experts in biomedical optics and biophotonics, this book gives a complete, state-of-the-art treatise on the design and applications of noninvasive optical methods and instruments for glucose sensing.

ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
This book provides a practical, concise guide to existing and future biosensor methodologies and technologies (i.e. portable sensing devices for continuous monitoring of parameters of blood glucose, carbon dioxide, PH, neurochemical analysis.) It considers why continuous in vivo sensing might be preferable to discontinuous in vitro sensing, which diagnostic parameters are of immediate health-care and commercial interest and which existing commercial devices lie on the path to fully autonomas, implantable devices.

Diabetes Epidemiology, Genetics, Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, Prevention, and Treatment
Author: Enzo Bonora
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9783319450148
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This book provides the reader with comprehensive information on the epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, pathophysiology, clinical features, prevention, and treatment of diabetes with the aim of empowering health care providers in their daily battle against the disease. Diabetes has been identified by WHO and the United Nations as a medical emergency because of the increase in its global prevalence, which may reach one billion in three to four decades if the trend remains unchanged. Despite improved care that is helping to prolong life, diabetes impacts substantially on the quality of life of those affected and kills or disables several million people each year. The disease is systemic because all organs, tissues, and cells suffer in the presence of hyperglycemia and are damaged by the diabetic milieu. Unfortunately, most patients with diabetes will consequently experience chronic diabetic complications. This book, combining basic science with a practical clinical orientation, will be of value for all physicians and nurses who care for patients with diabetes.
