Wireless implantable sensors enable continuous in vivo monitoring of physiological conditions. Recent advances in ultrasound-powered technologies have addressed limitations in power efficiency, signal transmission, and longevity, making them ideal for long-term applications. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of ultrasound-powered wireless implantable sensors (UWIS), highlighting their biocompatibility, power transfer mechanisms, and capabilities in biochemical and electrophysiological monitoring.
