1. A method for performing a non-invasive blood glucose level measurement, comprising:
translating raw optical measurements (“IT”) to calibrated optical transmission measurements (“A”) based on operating conditions of a light source device external to a body of a subject, with a ratio of the raw optical measurements and the operating conditions defining an internal transmittance, the operating conditions comprising radiant power (“Io”) of optical radiation emitted by the light source device;
preprocessing the calibrated optical transmission measurements;
providing the preprocessed calibrated optical transmission measurements to at least one chemometric model to obtain respective estimates of a concentration of acetone in a breath of the subject;
determining, using a lookup table, a defined internal transmittance value corresponding to the internal transmittance measured at a first wavelength;
determining, using the lookup table and the defined internal transmittance value, a defined concentration of acetone;
selecting, from the respective estimates, a particular estimate of the concentration of acetone in the breath of the subject that is closest to the defined concentration of acetone;
reporting an average of the defined concentration of acetone and the particular estimate as a measured concentration of the acetone in the breath of the subject, with the measured concentration of the acetone in the breath representing a level of blood glucose in the subject.
