The invention relates to devices and methods that improve the quality of optic measurements from surfaces such as skin and biological materials. Three methods for reducing spectral site to site variation in fluorescence and/or reflectance signals obtained from a sample surface are: repeated measurements taken at identifiable location(s) determined by fiducial marks, repeat of measurements at different locations on the sample, and tensioning the sample surface during measurement to alleviate surface heterogeneity. Combinations of these methodologies provide best results, and are expected to improve the ability to measure blood glucose non-invasively. |
