The present invention relates to a system for evaluating the evolution of the structure of a bone of a subject, said system comprising an implantable medical device comprising a distraction body and at least one reflector coupled to the distraction body, said distraction body being configured to distract osteotomically separated bone section bodies and comprising a first block for implantation and attachment to a first bone section, a second block for implantation and attachment to a second bone section separated from the first bone section by an osteotomy, an actuator configured to adjust the space between the first block and the second block when activated, enabling distraction between the first bone section and the second bone section, wherein said at least one reflector is configured to reflect an electromagnetic signal and is embedded in a surrounding tissue of the subject when the distraction body is attached to the bone of the subject, a calculation module configured to compute a parameter representative of the structure of the bone of the subject surrounding the bone distraction device, said parameter being computed from a reflected signal corresponding to a reflection, on the reflector embedded in the surrounding tissue of the subject, of an excitation signal comprising at least one frequency in the characteristic frequency range of the reflector, said reflected signal being representative of a dielectric constant of the surrounding tissue.
