Informationen zum Autor GAIL D. BAURA received a BSEE from Loyola Marymount University in 1984 and an MSEE and MSBME from Drexel University in 1987. She received a PhD in Bioengineering from the University of Washington in 1993. Between these degrees, Dr. Baura worked as a loop transmission systems engineer at AT&T Bell Laboratories. Since graduation, she has served in a variety of research positions at IVAC Corporation, Cardiotronics Systems, Alaris Medical Systems, and VitalWave Corporation. Dr. Baura is currently Vice President of Research at CardioDynamics. Her research interests are the application of system theory to patient monitoring and insulin metabolism. Klappentext Vital to both electrical and biomedical engineering professionals and students.* Provides the most current information in the areas of medical intstrumentation, biomedical and digital signal and bioengineering.* Useful to processing academic researchers in pursuing grants and industry fundings. Zusammenfassung Many medical applications could benefit from system theory, if only instrumentation designers understood systems theory and signal processing academics had a better understanding of practical medical applications. This book bridges those gaps in a practical manner, with suggestions for coursework included. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface. Nomenclature.
