Abstract :
This paper proposes and evaluates a fully implantable passive sensor for minimally invasive intracranial pressure monitoring. The sensor is inductively linked with an on-body reader coil to detect pressure variations. Evaluation of the sensor proved the capability of highly linear pressure measurement ranging from 0 to 70 mmHg at 5-mmHg intervals.
