Abstract
An implantable biocompatible sensor unit includes a sensor body of a biocompatible material configured for in vivo placement proximate a tumor treatment site. The sensor body includes at least one sensor element are configured to provide data corresponding to treatment of the tumor treatment site. The sensor body further includes a transmitter coil and associated electronic components configured for wireless transmittal of the data to a spatially remote receiver. In addition, the sensor body includes a high-atomic weight member that is configured to be detectable by an imaging modality. The sensor unit is configured to be inductively powered to wirelessly transmit the data to the remote receiver while remaining implanted proximate the tumor treatment site. Related medical systems and methods of operation are also discussed.
