Zusammenfassung:A luminescent in vivo glucose measurement method and apparatus is provided. The luminescent in vivo glucose measurement method includes the steps of illuminating displaced luminescent molecules with illuminating light, the displaced luminescent molecules and associated captive glucose analogue molecules being contained within an implanted luminescent in vivo measurement apparatus implanted within the interstitial fluid of the subject, and measuring an emitted light, the emitted light being emitted in response to the illumination, wherein the emitted light is related to the glucose level in the interstitial fluid.
