Publication number: 20230397832Abstract: A stent system can be used to measure a flow characteristic of a fluid, such as a biomagnetic fluid, flowing through a passage of a support structure forming a portion of the stent system. The stent system can include a magnetic apparatus mechanically coupled to the support structure, the magnetic apparatus configured to generate a magnetic field through the passage, the field including a component perpendicular to a direction of flow of the biological fluid. The stent system can include electrodes mechanically coupled to the support structure, where the electrodes are connected to output a potential difference generated by the flow of the biological fluid through the magnetic field indicative of a velocity of flow of the biological fluid through the passage.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 14, 2023Publication date: December 14, 2023Inventors: Arka Das, Eduardo Divo, Anthony Nunez
