Howell Summary Sensors are the eyes, ears, and more, of the modern engineered product or system--including the living human organism. This book offers a comprehensive review of biomedical sensors and their associated instrumentation systems now commonly used in modern medicine. Readers will find invaluable data and guidance on a wide variety of sensors used in biomedical applications, from fluid flow sensors, to ultrasound sensors, to chemical analysis sensors. New developments in biomaterials-based sensors that mimic natural biosystems will be covered as well, and the reader will find ample references throughout for further reading and research. Biomedical engineers, medical physicists, electrical engineers, and medical professionals will find state-of-the-art information on: Temperature sensors; Flow sensors for gases and liquids; Ultrasound sensors and chemical sensors for biomedical use; Sensors for both ionizing and nonionizing radiation; New developments in enzyme-based sensors, immune sensors, and microorganism-based sensors Analysis Biomedical sensors Temperature sensor technology Flow sensors for liquids Flow sensors for respiratory gases Biomedical sensors of ionizing radiation Nonionizing electromagnetic radiation Sensors for radiometric and photometric measurements Medical ultrasound sensors Chemical sensors for biomedical applications Biosensors Sensors for medical thermography and infrared radiation measurements Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes English Print version record Subject Biosensors.
