Hitachi devises blood sugar monitor that doesn't use blood

TOKYO, Japan - Hitachi Ltd. has developed what it claims to be the world's first blood sugar monitor for diabetics that does not require users to collect a blood sample. The non-invasive blood sugar monitoring device (photo) is intended to compute blood sugar levels by using special sensors to detect physiological parameters related to the body's metabolism, such as thermal energy, oxygen supply, and blood flow. To compute the blood sugar level, a patient places a finger on the device for 10 seconds and repeats the action two minutes later. The device takes a further two minutes to display the results.
