ABSTRACT:
A pressure sensor apparatus primarily for sensing pressure in a body cavity such as the cranium, bladder or vena cava of an animal or human comprising a housing having a bellows defining a chamber within the housing. Means is provided for communicating pressure from the body cavity to the chamber. A radioactive material is housed in the housing and at least partially surrounded by radiation shielding. The radiation shielding shields the radioactive material as a function of the pressure sensed by the flexible member and the radioactivity is sensed by a radiation detector.
