1. Apparatus comprising:
- a stimulator adapted for applying an electrical or magnetic stimulus to an endogenous tissue responsive to said stimulus;
a detector adapted for detecting a response of an endogenous tissue to said stimulus;
a correlator adapted for correlating said detected response of said endogenous tissue to a quantitive measure of an analyte concentration; and
an indicator adapted for indicating said quantitative measure of said analyte concentration in response to said correlation by said correlator.

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.

18. A method for determining a concentration of an analyte, comprising the steps of:
-
stimulating an endogenous tissue with an electrical or magnetic stimulus; detecting a response of an endogenous tissue to said stimulus; correlating said response to a quantitative measure of said analyte concentration; and indicating said quantitative measure of a said analyte concentration in response to said correlation. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
