Abstract

Biomedical telemetry Modular construction Printed circuits Probes Radio frequency Radio transmitters Remote monitoring Temperature distribution Temperature measurement Tunable circuits and devices
An implantable biotelemetry system is described for multisite temperature measurements with ease of expansion by use of different master circuit boards to accommodate additional channels. Modular construction of the multichannel FM-FM system allows addition or deletion of channels as the experiment requires. The radio frequency carrer osciUlator is tunable to a "quiet" frequency in the 90-105 MHz range prior to implantation. The telemeter may incorporate enclosed or remote temperature probes which allow deep body temperature measurements in the range of 30-42 °C with an available resolution of ±0.015°C. Transmitters have been utilized in monitoring ovarian and subcutaneous temperatures, and also as an aid in detection of ovulation in the Macaca mulatta.
