Biomedical Electronics & Measurement: Principles, Designs and Applications

In recent years, Biomedical Electronics and Measurement is being used extensively in Electronics measurements and Instrumentation, Medical and signal processing research and many other things. This rapid progress in Electronic Measurement & Instrumentation has created an increasing demand for trained Electronics Engineering personnel. Biomedical engineering is the application of the principles and problem-solving techniques of engineering to biology and medicine. This is evident throughout healthcare, from diagnosis and analysis to treatment and recovery, and has entered the public conscience though the proliferation of implantable medical devices, such as pacemakers and artificial hips, to more futuristic technologies such as stem cell engineering and the 3-D printing of biological organs. The book also looks at all the sub-systems of the network, focusing on both the practical and theoretical issues. This text book "Biomedical Electronics & Measurement" is organized into Six Chapters. Chapter-1: Biomedical Electronics & InstrumentationChapter-2: The Origin of Bio-PotentialsChapter-3: PH MeasurementChapter-4: Cardiac PacemakersChapter-5: Ionizing RadiationChapter -6: Thermography- Infrared, Liquid crystal, MicrowaveThis book is intended for the undergraduate and postgraduate students specializing in Electronics Engineering, Biomedical Engineering and Electronics & Instrumentation Engineering. It will also serve as reference material for engineers employed in industry. Salient Features-Comprehensive Coverage of Basics of Biomedical Electronics & Measurement, the Origin of Bio-Potentials, PH Measurement, Cardiac Pacemaker and Ionizing Radiation-New elements in book include Thermography- Infrared, Liquid crystal, Microwave and Ventilator.-Clear perception of the various designs of Biomedical Instruments, well drawn and illustrative diagrams. -Simple Language, easy- to- understand manner.Our sincere thanks are due to all Scientists, Engineers, Authors and Publishers, whose works and text have been the source of enlightenment, inspiration and guidance to us in presenting this small book. I will appreciate any suggestions from students and faculty members alike so that we can strive to make the text book more useful in the edition to come.
