Qi Zhang et al.

Summary: Implantable flexible mechanical sensors have great potential in health monitoring and disease diagnosis with continuous and real-time monitoring capability. Magnetic-based sensors offer wireless and passive sensing advantages, but face limitations due to mismatched mechanical properties, poor biocompatibility, and insufficient sensitivity.
