Implantable sensor systems offer great potential for enhanced
medical care and improved quality of life, consequently leading to
major investment in this exciting field. Implantable sensor systems
for medical applications provides a wide-ranging overview of the
core technologies, key challenges and main issues related to the
development and use of these devices in a diverse range of medical
applications.
Part one reviews the fundamentals of implantable systems, including
materials and material-tissue interfaces, packaging and coatings,
microassembly, electrode array design and fabrication, and the use
of biofuel cells as sustainable power sources. Part two goes on to
consider the challenges associated with implantable systems.
Biocompatibility, sterilization considerations and the development
of active implantable medical devices in a regulated environment
are discussed, along with issues regarding data protection and
patient privacy in medical sensor networks. Applications of
implantable systems are then discussed in part three, beginning
with Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) for in-vivo applications
before further exploration of tripolar interfaces for neural
recording, sensors for motor neuroprostheses, implantable wireless
body area networks and retina implants.
With its distinguished editors and international team of expert
contributors, Implantable sensor systems for medical applications
is a comprehensive guide for all those involved in the design,
development and application of these life-changing technologies.
