Monte Carlo analysis of near infrared wavelengths towards an optical NIR blood analyte sensor
Monte Carlo analysis of near infrared wavelengths towards an optical NIR blood analyte sensor
HOPE Scholar, Josie Dixon presented this poster at the Annual Conference of the German Society for Biomedical Engineering in September 2024 at Stuttgart, Germany. Josie's poster outlines light-tissue interaction simulations to assess the penetration depth, pathlength and detected power while developing a non-invasive sensing method for blood analytes.
Josie's work to develop a non-invasive blood glucose sensor technology will enable semi-continuous, pain-free, low-cost, and thus equitable and high adherence glucose monitoring.
A pdf of this poster is available to download.
Josie Dixon is a PhD Candidate from University of Canterbury. Professor Chris Petty is supervising Josie.
