104. An implantable radiation sensing device, comprising:
-
a proposed dose verification device configured to transcutaneously elicit proposed dose information from an external x-ray radiation-emitting system; and an exposure determination device configured to determine a potential exposure status associated with the proposed dose information from the external x-ray radiation-emitting system and to generated potential exposure status information. - View Dependent Claims (105, 106, 109, 110, 111, 113, 115, 118, 123, 124, 130)
