Implantable, multifunctional, bioresorbable optics.
Advances in personalized medicine are symbiotic with the development of novel technologies for biomedical devices. We present an approach that combines enhanced imaging of malignancies, therapeutics, and feedback about therapeutics in a single implantable, biocompatible, and resorbable device. This confluence of form and function is accomplished by capitalizing on the unique properties of silk ...
متن کاملBiocompatible Multifunctional Black-Silicon for Implantable Intraocular Sensor.
Multifunctional black-silicon (b-Si) integrated on the surface of an implantable intraocular pressure sensor significantly improves sensor performance and reliability in six-month in vivo studies. The antireflective properties of b-Si triples the signal-to-noise ratio and increases the optical readout distance to a clinically viable 12 cm. Tissue growth and inflammation response on the sensor i...
متن کاملCharacterization of MgNd2 alloy for potential applications in bioresorbable implantable devices.
The aim of this study is to investigate and demonstrate the mechanical and corrosive characteristics of the neodymium-containing magnesium alloy MgNd2 (Nd2), which can be used as a resorbable implant material, especially in the field of stenting applications. To determine the mechanical characteristics of Nd2, tensile and compression tests were initially carried out in the hot extruded state. H...
متن کاملSilicon electronics on silk as a path to bioresorbable, implantable devices.
Many existing and envisioned classes of implantable biomedical devices require high performance electronicssensors. An approach that avoids some of the longer term challenges in biocompatibility involves a construction in which some parts or all of the system resorbs in the body over time. This paper describes strategies for integrating single crystalline silicon electronics, where the silicon ...
متن کاملSelf-Powered, One-Stop, and Multifunctional Implantable Triboelectric Active Sensor for Real-Time Biomedical Monitoring.
Operation time of implantable electronic devices is largely constrained by the lifetime of batteries, which have to be replaced periodically by surgical procedures once exhausted, causing physical and mental suffering to patients and increasing healthcare costs. Besides the efficient scavenging of the mechanical energy of internal organs, this study proposes a self-powered, flexible, and one-st...
