Strain gauges are currently the default method for measuring deformation in bone. Strain gauges are not well suited for in vivo measurements because of their size and because they are difficult to use in bone. They are also unsuitable for repeated measurements over time since they cannot be left in

Design and operation of an optical ΓΏber device for temperature sensing and thermal expansion measurement are reported. The modulated intensity has been measured by using a pair of 450 m core ΓΏber, one acting as the source and the other one as receiving ΓΏber. In this design, the light intensity modul
For fibre-opt& sensor systems, a frequencyencoded sensor signal IS of great interest due to its mununrty against attenuation effects along the fibre-optic transrmsslon lme A possible approach for such sensors IS the use of &con mlcromechamcal bndges with optothermal exntation and an mterferometnc me
## Abstract Diagnostic catheters based on fibre Bragg gratings (FBG's) are proving to be highly effective for measurement of the muscular activity associated with motility in the human gut. While the primary muscular contractions that generate peristalsis are circumferential in nature, it has long
Electroluminescence semiconductor optrodes (EJ\_SOs), electrochemical optical sensor systems based on recording the electroluminescence response from semiconductor electrodes, have been proposed for the detection and analysis of chemical species in solution. The possibility of developing an ELSO sen
