ABSTRACT:
A non-invasive blood analyte concentration monitor. The monitor includes a stimulator applying a stimulus to an endogenous tissue responsive to the stimulus and a detector for detecting a response of an endogenous tissue to the stimulus. Also provided is a correlator which correlates the detected response of the endogenous tissue to an analyte concentration. In one embodiment, the monitored blood analyte is glucose.
