Abstract
Provided is a medical device assembly for detection of medical device components and/or mating thereof. The medical device assembly may include a first medical device component having at least one first resonant structure, which may have a first resonant frequency spectrum. A second medical device component may have at least one second resonant structure, which may have a second resonant frequency spectrum different than the first resonant frequency spectrum. Upon mating of the first medical device component to the second medical device component, the first resonant structure(s) and the second resonant structure(s) may combine to have a third resonant frequency spectrum, which may be different than the first resonant frequency spectrum and the second resonant frequency spectrum. A system and method are also disclosed.
