Abstract
An implantable medical device (IMD) includes a heterogeneous housing configured to receive and store one or more components of the IMD. The housing includes an intrinsically non-conductive and non-magnetic base material and at least one dopant with a property of at least one of electrical conductance and magnetic permeability. The base material and the dopant form a first region of the housing including a first skin depth and a second region of the housing including a second skin depth different than the first skin depth.
