This book covers the hardware and engineering that constitutes a magnetic resonance system, whether that be a high-resolution liquid or solid state system for NMR spectroscopy, a preclinical system for imaging animals, or a clinical system used for human imaging.

This accessible yet in-depth textbook describes the step-by-step processes involved in biomedical device design. Integrating microfabrication techniques, sensors and digital signal processing with key clinical applications, it covers: - The measurement, amplification and digitization of physiological signals, and the removal of interfering signals - The transmission of signals from implanted sensors through the body, and the issues surrounding the powering of these sensors - Networks for transferring sensitive patient data to hospitals for continuous home-monitoring systems - Tests for...
