Medical Device Technologies
A Systems Based Overview Using Engineering Standards
The first textbook for biomedical engineering courses in medical device design and instrumentation. Comprehensive and self-contained, the book introduces all necessary math (from Junior level calculus) and theory, and is also supported by a rich pedagogy and an extensive range of supporting tutorial and lab based projects.

Medical Device Technologies introduces undergraduate engineering students to commonly manufactured medical devices. It is the first textbook that discusses both electrical and mechanical medical devices. The first 20 chapters are medical device technology chapters; the remaining eight chapters focus on medical device laboratory experiments. Each medical device chapter begins with an exposition of appropriate physiology, mathematical modeling or biocompatibility issues, and clinical need. A device system description and system diagram provide details on technology function and administration of diagnosis and/or therapy. The systems approach lets students quickly identify the relationships between devices. Device key features are based on five applicable consensus standard requirements from organizations such as ISO and the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI).
