Cutting-edge coverage of mechatronics in medical systems

Mechatronics in Medicine: A Biomedical Engineering Approach describes novel solutions for utilizing mechatronics to design innovative, accurate, and intelligent medical devices and optimize conventional medical instruments. After an introduction to mechatronics, the book addresses sensing technologies, actuators and feedback sensors, mechanisms and mechanical devices, and processing and control systems. Artificial intelligence, expert systems, and medical imaging are also covered. This pioneering guide concludes by discussing applications of mechatronics in medicine and biomedical engineering and presenting seven real-world medical case studies.

In-depth details on:

  • Sensing technology
  • Electromechanical, fluid, pneumatic power, and other types of actuators
  • Feedback sensors
  • Mechanisms, mechanical devices, and their functions
  • Principles and methods of processing and controlling mechatronics systems
  • Artificial intelligence, expert systems, artificial neural networks, fuzzy systems, and neuro fuzzy systems
  • Medical imaging, including ultrasound, MRI, CT scan, and nuclear imaging
  • Medical case studies in mechatronics

    Biomaterials: Silver Jubilee Compendium
    The journal <b>Biomaterials</b> was launched in 1980. The subject of biomaterials science was then in its infancy, being largely cofined to the study of the characteristics of materials used for medical devices.Twenty-five years on, we can truly say that biomaterials science has matured at an incredible rate and now represents a formidable sector that bridges the materials sciences, advanced medical therapies, and molecular and cell sciences.This <b>Silver Jubilee Compendium</b> consists of reprinted versions of the top 25 papers, published during these 25 years, as judged by an international panel of biomaterials scientists.This book is published as a landmark in biomaterials science and it is to be hoped that it will serve as a stimulus to young biomaterials scientists of the early twenty-first century for their pioneering work of the future.

    Chitosan Based Biomaterials Volume 2: Tissue Engineering and Therapeutics
    <p><i>Chitosan Based Biomaterials: Tissue Engineering and Therapeutics, Volume 2, </i>provides the latest information on chitosan, a natural polymer derived from the marine material chitin. Chitosan displays unique properties, most notably biocompatibility and biodegradability. It can also be easily tuned to modify its structure or properties, making chitosan an excellent candidate as a biomaterial. Consequently, chitosan is being developed for many biomedical functions, ranging from tissue engineering and implant coatings to drug and gene delivery. This book provides readers with a full coverage of the applications of chitosan-based biomaterials. </p>
