<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make observation throughout data recording time and evaluation after a stent is removed possible, by bearing a locator that locates one or more variables concerning a body or its surrounding condition, in a stent that can be implanted in a body vessel. SOLUTION: A stent 42 that is arranged in a vessel 40 has a probing element 44 that locates one or more variables concerning a body or its surrounding condition. The probing element 44 is a measuring instrument, for example, that measures a flow rate of a humor like blood that passes the stent 40, and is connected to a signal generating circuit, an output signal of which becomes a measured value of a flow rate of a humor. And the signal is sent to a signal conversion transmission circuit to excite a transmission coil 52 arranged in the stent 42, and electromagnetic radiation generated there carries information concerning measurement signals of the probing element 44 by modulation, for example.</p> |
