Microwave sensor for non-invasive glucose measurements design and implementation of a novel linear

The tongue is a muscular hydrostat which is a part of oral cavity. The interaction of tongue with palate is essential for articulation of speech and swallowing of food. Patients with neurological disorders have impaired speech and swallowing problem. In this work, a device is envisioned to provide a non-invasive rehabilitation aid for speech and swallowing disorders. The proposed device serves as both diagnostic and therapeutic tool. The parameters of the proposed device are tongue pressure measurement and tongue color detection along with neuromodulation stimulator (tongue stimulator – therapeutic aid). The output, which is a waveform (tongue pressure) and an image (tongue color) are transmitted wirelessly outside the oral cavity to the computer. This device is used to investigate and quantify the degree of tongue disorder. Periodic rehabilitation therapies along with the proposed device, increases the chances of recovery of functional tongue disorders by 50% within a short interval of time.

Lactate is known to be an indicator of neurological impairment during aortic aneurysm surgery. It is suggested that analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) removed during such surgery could provide useful information in this regard. Medical professionals find the prospect of online detection of such analytes exciting, as current practice is time consuming and leads to multiple invasive procedures. Advancing from the current laboratory based analysis techniques to online methods could provide the basis for improved treatment regimes, better quality of care, and enhanced resource efficiency within hospitals. Accordingly, this article considers the use of a low power microwave sensor to detect varying lactate concentrations. Microwave sensors provide a rapid non-invasive method of material analysis, which is robust, cost-effective, and has huge potential for a wide range of biomedical applications.
