Electrophotonic Imaging Based Analysis of Diabetes

Diabetes is defined as hyperglycemia for a long term. Abnormal glucose metabolism leading to hyperglycemia defines diabetes [1]. Diabetes Mellitus is a family of diseases with increased levels of blood sugar due to defects in insulin action or secretion associated with long term damage or failure of various organs like eyes kidneys, blood vessels and nerves [2]. Presence of sugar in the blood for a long time leads to various disorders like thickening of the arterial walls causing blood pressure to increase and organs and organ systems becoming weaker and non-functional due to non-availability of the required quantity of glucose [3]. Obesity, high fat diet and sedentary lifestyle contribute to the prevalence of type2 diabetes [4]. Diabetes is a lifestyle non-communicable disorder.
