Would implantable CGMs be more accurate?

I am talking more about generalities of sensing through the skin. There have been several companies that tried to create a through the skin glucose sensor for use in physicians offices, so every patient could get a non-invasive glucose measurement every time they go to the office. The hang up is that the spectroscopy required to accomplish this is very computer intensive. So much so that they haven’t been commercially viable. With that said, computing power is always progressing, so the problem will be solved, the question is just when.

If the doctor’s office version is not ready yet, I am sure the home version is in the very distant future. I know how long it was between doctor’s office BG tests being available, and the home BG test kits first coming out. They have to be able to make it cheap enough for home use, and small enough to be practical.
