摘要: Methods for evaluating motion of a tissue, such as of a cardiac location, e.g., heart wall, via continuous field tomography are provided. In the subject methods, a continuous field (e.g., an electrical, mechanical, electro-mechanical, or other field) sensing element is stably associated with the tissue location. A property of the applied continuous field is detected with the sensing element to evaluate movement of the tissue location. Also provided are systems, devices and related compositions for practicing the subject methods.

摘要: A tunable optical unit includes a resistive temperature device (RTD), a thermal tuning device and a measurement circuit. The RTD has a resistance dependent on a temperature of the thermal tuning device. The measurement circuit outputs a signal that is dependent on the resistance of the RTD. The signal is used to control the temperature of the thermal tuning device in tuning the tunable optical unit. A reference resistance can be connected in series with the RTD to make ratio-metric measurements to determine the RTD's resistance (and hence the temperature of the tuning elements) without having to know the value of the current conducted through the RTD and to reduce sensitivity to fluctuations in the excitation signal.

摘要: Embodiments of the present invention provide blood flow sensors that can be used for measurement of various physiological parameters under a wide array of conditions. In some embodiments, the blood flow sensor can be implanted into a blood vessel and left in place indefinitely and will unobtrusively measure and record data as the patient engages in regular daily activities. The data can later be read out by a clinician using a suitable interface. In other embodiments, the data is collected and analyzed within a data collection device implanted in or attached to the patient's body, and the collection device can report to the patient on an ongoing basis or in the form of alerts issued when conditions requiring medical intervention are detected.
