  • Abstract
    Wireless medical implant technology has been revolutionized in the last 10 years with the introduction of the world-wide Medical Implant Communication Service (MICS 402-405 MHz) and more recently MedRadio (401-406) MHz band. This has enabled the growth of remote monitoring with improved patient care. Recent advances and future developments in this growth area are presented.
