Patent

CA 2142995

A passive transponder (28) may be encoded with a number or code of up to 64 binary bits and then mounted to virtually any prosthesis implanted in a human, such as a breast implant. After implanta- tion, the transponder's code may be conveniently read with a hand held electromagnetic reader (24) which may merely be brought within proximity of the transponder (28). The encoded transponder (28) may thus be read in a non-invasive procedure and without the use of any sophisticated or potentially harmful medical equipment or technology such as X-ray. The information encoded in the transponder (28) may correspond to patient demographics and implant da- ta to aid in tracking the implant's manufacturer and use for medical as well as legal reasons.
