  • Publication number: 20090018403
    Abstract: An implantable biocompatible sensor unit includes a sensor body of a biocompatible material configured for in vivo placement proximate a tumor treatment site. The sensor body includes at least one sensor element are configured to provide data corresponding to treatment of the tumor treatment site. The sensor body further includes a transmitter coil and associated electronic components configured for wireless transmittal of the data to a spatially remote receiver. In addition, the sensor body includes a high-atomic weight member that is configured to be detectable by an imaging modality. The sensor unit is configured to be inductively powered to wirelessly transmit the data to the remote receiver while remaining implanted proximate the tumor treatment site. Related medical systems and methods of operation are also discussed.

  • Patent number: 6717154
    Abstract: Methods for quantifying the irradiation dose received by an item or items, such as food items and medical items, undergoing irradiation-based sterilization, includes the steps of monitoring a selected electronic parameter associated with an economic single use sensor positioned adjacent the item or items and telemetrically relaying data associated with the monitored electronic parameter to a computer. The computer includes a computer program which is configured to determine the radiation dose received by the item or items by correlating the value of the monitored electronic parameter to a corresponding amount of radiation associated with the value. Related sensors and systems are also described.
