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...

Computers are now found in virtually every medical imaging system, including ultrasound, nuclear medicine, and magnetic resonance imaging. Biomedical Image Analysis mitigates the limitations of combining diverse images of the same organ into a readily-comprehensible visual display. It shows readers the benefits of computer vision techniques, adding objective strength and diagnostic confidence through quantative analysis. The problems presented in this book focus on the post-acquisition challenges like enhancement, detection of edges, analysis of shape, and sharpness, rather than the imaging...
