From one of the most widely known editors in biomedical engineering comes a new title describing measurement methods in medicine and biology. While many books on medical instrumentation cover only hospital instrumentation, this book also encompasses measurements in the growing fields of molecular biology, cellular biology, and tissue engineering. Webster's approach introduces students to measurements, covers the necessary electronics, and then builds from small to big/ measurements on molecules, cells, organs, and the body. Each chapter includes homework problems and references for further study. Extensive laboratory instructions, examination and quiz questions, and PowerPoint slides of figures are contained on the web site.
