Scope and content: "This text is intended for use in an introductory course in bioinstrumentation taken by seniors and 1st year graduate students in departments of biomedical engineering and possibly electrical engineering. Non-invasive instrumentation is a very important component of this course. An analytical and quantitative approach is stressed in describing the basic components of non-invasive medical instruments. The relationship of the many non-invasive parameters measured to health and physiology is considered in every case. Where appropriate this text also covers invasive instrumentation, with a description of their positive and negative effects."--Provided by publisher.
