Zusammenfassung:The introduction of microsystem and Laboratory-in-a-Pill technologies into medical diagnostics has been a growing field over several decades, where low form factor can significantly improve device access and patient comfort. Similarly, remote medicine and monitoring networks have become more important and popular. In this paper, we present our results on research towards a wireless microsystem network that can deliver analytical data from microsystems distributed in one or more patients' gastrointestinal tracts to a remote monitoring network. We believe that the combination of microsystem and network technologies will greatly benefit future medical research.
