Application: Wireless active monitoring implant system (Patent ID: US20240065614A1)
The patent filed by Hologic Inc. describes systems and methods for the real-time monitoring of a wireless implant, specifically a biosensor implanted in a breast biopsy cavity. The biosensor detects biochemical parameter data and transmits it wirelessly to a surveillance system for evaluation. This evaluation can involve detecting trends in a tumor's microenvironment, monitoring treatment progress, and adjusting treatment for personalized care. The method involves adjusting the set of biochemical parameters based on feedback received from anatomical measurements of the breast and monitoring the adjusted parameters to modify cancer treatment, creating a closed feedback loop to enhance treatment efficacy.
Additionally, the method includes recording, timestamping, and organizing biochemical parameters, applying data to statistical processing models to compare against baseline measurements, and identifying trends in the human body. The biosensor is visible under imaging modalities and is not bioabsorbable. The system also allows for user input of anatomical measurements, which are evaluated against the data collected by the biosensor to implement actions based on the evaluation. The method further involves data processing, trend identification, and assessment of the breast biopsy cavity to generate warnings, notifications, reports, and action items for improved patient care.
