Biomedical Technology and Devices Handbook
James Moore, George Zouridakis

Hardcover: 840 pages    
ISBN 0849311403
CRC Press
August 2003
Price: $179.95

 

Concise yet comprehensive, this handbook illuminates the equipment, devices, and techniques used in modern medicine to diagnose, treat, and monitor human illnesses. 

  • Provides a ready reference to the equipment, devices, and techniques used in modern medicine
  • Covers diagnostic technologies, treatment technologies, and post-treatment monitoring technologies
  • Includes references to relevant Web sites, protocols, problems and solutions
  • Presents each technique then applies it to different physiological systems, such as the cardiovascular, nervous, and digestive systems

With topics ranging from the basic procedures like blood pressure measurement to cutting-edge imaging equipment, biological tests, and genetic engineering, the editors have conceived and organized the handbook to guide readers smoothly from simple procedures to the more sophisticated and complex. 

Each section begins with a description of the technique and its technical considerations, then explores its use according to its applications and relevant body systems.

Characterizing their work as a "still photo of a swiftly moving, constantly shaping cloud," Moore (mechanical engineering, Florida International U.) and Zouridakis (director, Biomedical Imaging Lab, U. of Houston) offer biomedical engineering professionals, medical professionals and students an overview of the field. 

Thirty-two chapters are organized under such topic headings as basic clinical measurements, imaging techniques, biological assays, genetic and tissue engineering, interventional disease treatment, ambulatory adaptations, recovery, and alternative and emerging techniques.
