Biomedical Instrumentation.

Catalog description

Semester course; 3 lecture and 3 laboratory hours. 4 credits. Prerequisites: EGRB 102 and EGRB 209 ; EGRB 215 or CMSC 210 ; and EGRE 206 , all with minimum grades of C. A study of the physical principles, design and clinical uses of biomedical instrumentation. Analysis and design of low frequency electronic circuits, which are most frequently used in biomedical instruments, will be conducted. Analysis of biosensors, biopotential electrodes, the measurements of biopotential signals including electrocardiogram, electroencephalogram and electromyogram, blood pressure, blood flow, and respiratory system will be conducted. Laboratory work on basic biomedical electronics and instrumentation will be performed.
