Design of Biomedical Devices and Systems, Second Edition

The design and functional complexity of medical devices have increased over the past 50 years, evolving from cardiac pacemakers to magnetic resonance imaging. Design of Biomedical Devices and Systems provides a comprehensive overview of this area - including topics related to databases, process analysis, and device improvement - from a strong design perspective. Aimed at senior undergraduates, this text covers all aspects of design that must be considered for complex biomedical projects. This new second edition features additional information on device definition and reliability, as well as testing and hardware verification. All chapters are updated to reflect the latest advances in the field.
