Beschreibung

This updated edition of an Artech House classic introduces readers to the importance of engineering in medicine. Bioelectrical phenomena, principles of mass and momentum transport to the analysis of physiological systems, the importance of mechanical analysis in biological tissues/ organs and biomaterial selection are discussed in detail. Readers learn about the concepts of using living cells in various therapeutics and diagnostics, compartmental modeling, and biomedical instrumentation. The book explores fluid mechanics, strength of materials, statics and dynamics, basic thermodynamics, electrical circuits, and material science. A significant number of numerical problems have been generated using data from recent literature and are given as examples as well as exercise problems. These problems provide an opportunity for comprehensive understanding of the basic concepts, cutting edge technologies and emerging challenges.Describing the role of engineering in medicine today, this comprehensive volume covers a wide range of the most important topics in this burgeoning field. Moreover, you find a thorough treatment of the concept of using living cells in various therapeutics and diagnostics. Structured as a complete text for students with some engineering background, the book also makes a valuable reference for professionals new to the bioengineering field. This authoritative textbook features numerous exercises and problems in each chapter to help ensure a solid understanding of the material.

Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This updated and expanded second edition of an Artech House classic introduces readers to the importance of engineering in medicine. Transport of molecules, bioelectrical phenomena, principles of mass, momentum, and energy transport to the analysis of fluids and solids, biomechanical analysis, biomaterial selection, and imaging are discussed in detail. Readers learn about using living cells in developing therapies, biosensors, diagnostics, genomics, proteomic strategies, and model development. Key topics covered in this resource include basics of fluid mechanics, strength of materials, statics and dynamics, basic thermodynamics, electrical circuits, and material science. Many numerical problems are provided as examples and exercise problems are included. These problems facilitate in-depth understanding of engineering principles in the development of biomedical applications, cutting-edge technologies, and emerging challenges.

Describing the role of engineering in medicine today, this complete volume covers a wide range of the most important topics in this burgeoning field. Moreover, readers will find a thorough treatment of standards and ethical considerations needed for exploring biomedical research and device development. Structured as a complete text for students with some engineering background, the book also serves as a valuable reference for professionals new to the bioengineering field.
