Abstract

A process of calibrating an individual in preparation for the non-invasive measurement of an biological compound across the skin of that individual using non-ionizing radiation is provided. The process includes determining the contribution of one or more skin parameters to the absorption and transmittance data and correcting the subsequent non-invasive measurement of the biological compound for the contribution of the parameter(s).
