A diagnostic apparatus comprising a sealed case, a first antenna and a second antenna and processing circuitry are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the sealed case includes a biocompatible material and is configured for implantation within a body of a patient. Further, each one of the first antenna and the second antenna are configured to be implanted in the body in proximity to a target tissue, generate and transmit radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic waves through the target tissue to the other antenna, and output a signal in response to RF waves received from the other antenna. In addition, the processing circuitry can be contained within the case and is configured to receive and process the signal from each antenna so as to derive and output an indication of a characteristic of the target tissue.

Implantable radio-frequency sensor

Diagnostic apparatus () includes a sealed case (), comprising a biocompatible material and configured for implantation within a body of a human subject (). A dielectrometric probe () is connected to the case and includes first and second conductors (), which are configured to be placed in proximity to a target tissue () in the body. A driving circuit (), which is contained in the case, is coupled to apply a radio-frequency (RF) signal to the probe and to sense the signal returned from the probe. Processing circuitry () is configured to evaluate, responsively to the returned signal, a dielectric property of the target tissue.
