An in-vivo method and apparatus is disclosed that comprises at least one sensor for determining changes in a human's an animal's body and reporting said changes outside the body. The sensor may be embedded in a sheath. The apparatus may be used to monitor chemical or physical changes in the body fluids. Alternatively, the apparatus may be used to monitor and regulate chemical or physical levels in humans and animals.

A plurality of thin, conductive wires are stretched across the open center of a frame through which the liquid drops to be measured will fall. Adjacent wires are maintained at a potential difference with respect to each other so that when the wires are momentarily connected by a passing conductive drop, the potential of one rises while that for the other falls. The wires are connected to circuitry which detects the change in potential in each individual wire and stores an indication of such change for later use. By counting the number of adjacent wires whose potential has changed, and knowing the dimensions of the wires and the spacing between them, it is possible to calculate drop size to accuracies dependent upon the design dimensions chosen for the device.
