Noninvasive blood glucose measurement has become a research hot-spot in biomedical field. Photoacoustic technique is an ultrasound-mediated blood glucose measuring method based on the intrinsic optical absorption properties of tissue, and the technique avoids the interference of high optical scattering in principle and provides a noninvasive and effective way with high sensitivity for the noninvasive blood glucose measurement. This paper reviews the development of the noninvasive blood glucose measurement. Firstly, the principle of blood glucose photoacoustic noninvasive measurement is introduced. Then, the blood glucose photoacoustic detection systems in the domestic and foreign are introduced according to the different excitation sources and the experimental progresses in blood glucose photoacoustic detection are summarized to promote the development of domestic blood glucose noninvasive measurement technique.
