Artist’s depiction of the biodegradable pressure sensor wrapped around a blood vessel with the antenna off to the side (layers separated to show details of the antenna’s structure). A new device ...

When someone has had blood vessel surgery, it's important for doctors to check that the vessel doesn't become blocked as it heals. Such blockages could someday be detected earlier and more easily than ...

How a wireless stent can be used for an implanted sensor and inductive link. How the wireless stent was fabricated and used. How the stent’s performance was evaluated. There are multiple options for ...

Stanford University researchers have developed an arterial-pulse sensor to wirelessly monitor blood flow, an advance that could allow doctors to remotely monitor the success of blood vessel surgery.

One of the metrics needed to monitor the success of blood-vessel surgery is blood flow and pressure through the repaired vessel, but measuring that parameter brings many obvious challenges. A team of ...

A device developed by Stanford University researchers that monitors the flow of blood through an artery could make it easier for doctors to monitor the success of blood vessel surgery. The ...

Transforming super-sensitive touch sensors, engineers and medical researchers build a way to wirelessly monitor blood flow after surgery. A new device developed by Stanford University researchers ...

A new device developed by Stanford University researchers could make it easier for doctors to monitor the success of blood vessel surgery. The sensor, detailed in a paper published Jan. 8 in Nature ...
