A feedthrough array for use in an implantable medical device is provided including an insulator, a plurality of conductive feedthrough pins extending through the insulator, and a ferrule including a flange extending inwardly from a ferrule sidewall along at least a majority of a length of a first ferrule side. A first end of the pin is housed inside the bushing and a second end of the pin, opposite to the first end, projects axially in cantilever fashion from the bushing. The protective film has a flattened surface. After a trigger event, the RFID tag transmits a modified broadcast. This is provided using one or more cameras and a cellular telephone to which the pictures can be sent.
