The Encyclopedia of Biomedical Engineering is a unique source for the rapidly growing biomedical engineering community, on topics at the interface of the biological sciences and engineering. Biomaterials, biomedical devices and techniques play a significant role in improving the quality of health care in the developed world and in the developing world, as healthcare consumers continue to demand ever more complex devices for diagnosis and treatment of medical conditions. The Encyclopedia of Biomedical Engineering covers an extensive range of topics related to biomedical engineering, including biomaterials, sensors, medical devices, imaging modalities, and imaging processing. In addition, applications of biomedical engineering, advances in cardiology, drug delivery, gene therapy, orthopaedics, ophthalmology, sensing, and tissue engineering are explored. This important reference work serves many groups working at the interface of the biological sciences and engineering, including engineering students, biological science students, clinicians, and industrial researchers. The product will provide students with a concise description of the technologies at the interface of the biological sciences and engineering. This will provide 'new scientists' with a solid grounding in unfamiliar topics, and will provide a refresher for experienced researchers seeking to step outside their core areas of research and to put their work into a broader context. The product will also provide industrial researchers with an up-to-date and user-friendly reference on current topics in the field of biomedical engineeringInterdisciplinary coverage across all aspects of biomedical engineering. Incorporates perspectives from experts working within the domains of biomedicine, medical engineering, biology, chemistry, physics, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, materials science, pharmacology and toxicology. This provides readers with reputable, multi-disciplinary content from domain expertsProvides a 'one-stop' resource for access to information written by world-leading scholars in the field, with easy cross-referencing of related articles to promote understanding and further research INDICE: Biomaterials Regenerative Engineering (previously titled Tissue Engineering) Rehabilitation Engineering and Integrative Technologies Medical Devices Biomechanics Medical Imaging Mathematical Techniques in Biomedical Engineering Bioinstrumentation and Bioinformatics
