Biomedical Device Technologyby Anthony Y. K. Chan
Charles C Thomas 2008; US$ 89.95For many years, the tools available to physicians were limited to a few simple handpieces such as stethoscopes, thermometers and syringes; medical professionals primarily relied on their senses and skills to perform diagnosis and disease mitigation. Today, diagnosis of medical problems is heavily dependent on the analysis of information made available by sophisticated medical machineries such as electrocardiographs, ultrasound scanners and laboratory analyzers. Patient treatments often involve specialized equipment such as cardiac pacemakers and electrosurgical units. Such biomedical instrumentations play a critical and indispensable role in modern day medicine. In order to design, build, maintain and effectively deploy medical devices, one... more...
An Introduction to Tissue-Biomaterial Interactionsby Kay C. Dee; David A. Puleo; Rena Bizios
John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2003; US$ 159.95An Introduction to Tissue-Biomaterial Interactions acquaints an undergraduate audience with the fundamental biological processes that influence these sophisticated, cutting-edge procedures.
