A non-invasive imaging and analysis system suitable for measuring
attributes of a target, such as the blood glucose concentration of
tissue, includes an optical processing system which provides a probe and
reference beam. It also includes a means that applies the probe beam to
the target to be analyzed, combines the probe and reference beams
interferometrically, detects concurrent interferometric signals and
correlates the detected signals with previously stored electronic data to
determine the attribute of the target.
