Abstract: Method and apparatus for locating an implant comprising magnetic material and/or a charge storage device in a living animal. The apparatus may include a magnetic field generator (e.g., an electromagnetic field generator) configured to generate a magnetic field (e.g., an electromagnetic field). The apparatus may include a sensor configured to detect changes in the magnetic field and to generate a sensor signal indicative of the changes in the magnetic field. The magnetic material and/or the charge storage device of the implant may cause changes to the magnetic field as the sensor is moved over the implant. The apparatus may include a computer configured to use the sensor signal to detect a location of the implant.

Abstract: The present invention describes an active overlay of real-time glucose and/or insulin information on a display for convenient monitoring and control of information for the management of diabetes. The superimposed images on display can be varied based on automated and/or programmable processes and/or alerts of the system. In various embodiments, the system can include a console and/or remote control to allow the user to control the overlay display. In specific embodiments, the system can communicate with a glucose sensor and/or insulin infusion device.
