Number of people awaiting therapeutic devices and implants increase with the increase in population. Cochlear implants are one of these implants which aid patients with sensorineural hearing loss. Conventional cochlear implants consist of two distinct parts inside and outside of the ear. Communication in between these parts is conducted wirelessly. In fully implantable cochlear implants, there is no operational outside block. Hence, in order to interact with all the blocks, wireless data transfer should be used in an extensive manner. In this thesis, a bidirectional wireless data transfer system for fully implantable cochlear implants utilizing inductive coupling with Binary Phase Shift Keying is designed. In addition to system being designed to be primarily used for patient fitting application, magnetfree system can also transfer data and carrier with BERs of 3x10-3 in worst coupling conditions, bidirectionally. The patient fitting processor has less than 1 bit error for each fitting cycle. With fully digital non-coherent detection, implanted structure consumes 47.1 µW power without power amplifiers.

Reprint of 'Draw your assay: Fabrication of low-cost paper-based diagnostic and multi-well test zones by drawing on a paper'
OYOLA-REYNOSO, Stephanie; HEIM, Andrew P.; HALBERTSMA-BLACK, Julian; ZHAO, C.; TEVIS, Ian D.; Çınar, Simge; Cademartiri, Rebecca; LIU, Xinyu; Bloch, Jean-Francis; Thuo, Martin M. (2015-12-01)
Interest in low-cost diagnostic devices has recently gained attention, in part due to the rising cost of healthcare and the need to serve populations in resource-limited settings. A major challenge in the development of such devices is the need for hydrophobic barriers to contain polar bio-fluid analytes. Key approaches in lowering the cost in diagnostics have centered on (i) development of low-cost fabrication techniques/processes, (ii) use of affordable materials, or, (iii) minimizing the need for high-te...
Numerical simulation of the effect of time-to-loading on peri-implant bone
AKÇA, KIVANÇ; Eer, Atilim; Canay, Senay (Elsevier BV, 2010-01-01)
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of time-to-loading on trabecular bone around single-tooth dental implants using numerical solutions based on computer models.
Forward problem solution for electrical conductivity imaging via contactless measurements
Gençer, Nevzat Güneri (IOP Publishing, 1999-04-01)
The forward problem of anew medical imaging system is analysed in this study. This system uses magnetic excitation to induce currents inside a conductive body and measures the magnetic fields of the induced currents. The forward problem, that is determining induced currents in the conductive body and their magnetic fields, is formulated. For a general solution of the forward problem, the finite element method (FEM) is employed to evaluate the scalar potential distribution. Thus, inhomogeneity and anisotropy...
Additive manufacturing of biodegradable magnesium implants and scaffolds: Review of the recent advances and research trends
Sezer, Nurettin; Evis, Zafer; Koc, Muammer (2021-03-01)
Synthetic grafting needs improvements to eliminate secondary surgeries for the removal of implants after healing of the defected tissues. Tissue scaffolds are engineered to serve as temporary templates, which support the affected tissue and gradually degrade through the healing period. Beside mechanical function to withstand the anatomic loading conditions, scaffolds should also provide a decent biological function for the diffusion of nutrients and oxygen to the cells, and excretion of the wastes from the ...
Passive Haptic Interface with MR-Brakes for Dental Implant Surgery
Senkal, Doruk; Gurocak, Hakan; Konukseven, Erhan İlhan (MIT Press - Journals, 2011-06-01)
In this research a passive haptic interface is explored as a surgical aid for dental implant surgery. The placement of a dental implant is critical since positioning mistakes can lead to permanent damage in the nerves controlling the lips, long lasting numbness, and failure of the implant and the crown on it. Haptic feedback to the surgeon in real time can decrease dependence on the surgeon's skill and experience for accurate implant positioning and increase the overall safety of the procedure. The develope...
