China: Researchers Develop Injectable – Biodegradable Gel-Based Sensors! (7.6.2024)

The gel-based miniaturized sensor, a set of 2-millimetre cube-shaped sensors, is implanted within the intracranial space using a puncture needle and capable of independently measuring intracranial pressure, temperature, pH, and flow rate. The sensor made of hydrogel will dissolve in the body within weeks without surgery.

It exhibits excellent sensing capabilities, comparable to those of conventional non-resorbable wired clinical benchmarks. In the future, this sensor can also be applied to other parts of the human body, which is expected to bring a new technology paradigm for clinical intelligent diagnosis and treatment.
