Title:
OPTICAL CAVITY STRUCTURE FOR IMPLANTATION
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2008191149
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide various techniques including an implantable product.

A system 10 is an implantable product including members 12 and 14 together connected along a broken line 16. The product is long and narrow, and similar to a short needle. The member 12 has a specimen container 20 while the member 14 has a reference container 22. The containers are separated from each other by a wall part-like structure 24 and the reference container is completely surrounded by a wall part-like structure 26 on the opposite side of the structure 24 while respective end parts are surrounded by wall part-like structures such as the structure 27, for example. Since the specimen container is left open, a bodily fluid 28 can get in and get out through an open end part or an opening in a side wall part 29. Since the bodily fluid is continuously replaced with that in a surrounding area, continuous monitoring can be allowed. The members 12 and 14, being light-transmissive, receive input light via an entrance surface while they provide output light via an exit surface.
