In order to design, build, maintain and effectively deploy medical devices, one needs to understand not only their design and construction but also how they interact with the human body. This book provides a comprehensive approach to studying the principles and design of biomedical devices as well as their applications in medicine. It is written for engineers and technologists who are interested in understanding the principles, design and applications of medical device technology. The book is also intended to be used as a textbook or reference for biomedical device technology courses in universities and colleges.
Chan presents readers with the second edition of his comprehensive approach to the study of the principles and design of biomedical devices and their contemporary and potential applications in a variety of medical contexts. The author has organized the thirty-eight chapters that make up the main body of his text in four parts focused on biomedical instrumentation and signal measurement, processing, and analysis; biomedical transducers; the fundamental building blocks of medical instrumentation; and medical devices.
