A method and an apparatus for measuring glucose level in the body fluid of a subject, typically blood glucose level, by measuring impedance of a body tissue, with two pairs of electrodes, two electrodes for injecting current into a body tissue and two electrodes for detecting the ensuing voltage of the body tissue. The body tissue is typically a sub-dermal or sub-cutaneous tissue. The measured impedance of the body tissue is used to correlate with directly determined glucose elvels to determine the glucose level from the measured impedance. It is thus possible to determine body fluid glucose levels in a reliable and reproducible manner.

La présente invention a trait à un procédé et un appareil permettant la mesure du niveau de glucose dans le liquide organique d'un sujet, typiquement le niveau de glycémie, par la mesure de l'impédance d'un tissu cellulaire, avec deux paires d'électrodes pour l'injection de courant dans un tissu cellulaire et deux électrodes pour la détection de la tension résultante du tissu cellulaire. Le tissu cellulaire est typiquement un tissu sous-dermique ou sous-cutané. L'impédance mesurée du tissu cellulaire est utilisée pour établir la corrélation des niveaux de glucose directement déterminés en vue de déterminer le niveau de glucose à partir de l'impédance mesurée. Ainsi, il est possible de déterminer les niveaux de glucose de manière fiable et reproductible.
