1. An apparatus for spatially-selective administration of actions by at least one device in the body, the apparatus comprising:
- a transducer that is sensitive to a spatially-variant energy field imposed on the at least one device by a source external to a subject'"'"'s body; and
at least one component in the at least one device,wherein interaction of the transducer with an imposed spatially-variant energy field causes or enables at least one component in the at least one device to affect nearby tissues in the body.

Abstract
An apparatus and method are provided for spatially-selective administration of actions by at least one device in the body using a transducer that is sensitive to a spatially-variant energy field imposed on the at least one device by a source external to a subject'"'"'s body; and at least one component in the at least one device, wherein interaction of the transducer with the imposed spatially-variant energy field causes or enables at least one component in the at least one device to affect nearby tissues in the body.

18. A method for spatially-selective administration of actions by at least one device in the body, the method comprising:
-
imposing a spatially-variant energy field on the at least one device by a source external to a subject'"'"'s body; and exposing a transducer that is sensitive to the spatially-variant energy field to the spatially-variant energy field to affect nearby tissues in the body. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35)
