Data !
More data.
Must have data!
To deal with your data :-)

How fast minimum?

How much data  / What duty cycle?
(eg 112 kbps continuous or 10% bursts of 100 bits or ...)

How deep inside?

How much range? Does orientaton affect this?
Add this answer to next question's answer.

Cooperative target or passive?
(target comes to receiver / target orientates to receiver / target 
doesn't know receiver location / target essentially doesn't know 
receiver/transmitter exist/ ...)

Lifetime?
(Hours / days / months / indefinite?)

Can it be powered by remote powering?

What known regulatory issues?
(Person / animal / cadaver / ...?)

Target actve/passing by/stationary/area restricted/ ... .

RF?
(Capacitive, inductive, near field, optical, ...)
(Having the whole 'body' inside an inductive powering loop could work 
very well but may not be permissible in your application.
