This industry standard on biomedical equipment is an important resource for providing a broad technological knowledge base, and deep coverage of critical points. It serves as a handy reference on unfamiliar topics—organized so that users can easily look up topics of interest, study areas where they are weak or where they have not worked in some time. Chapter topics include an overview of the human body; an introduction to biomedical instrumentation and measurement; basic theories of measurement; signals and noise; electrodes, sensors, and transducers; bioelectric amplifiers; electrocardiograph equipment; respiratory therapy equipment; instrumentation for measuring brain parameters; care and feeding of battery operated equipment; computers in biomedical equipment; and quality assurance and continuous quality improvement. For working professionals in biomedical equipment, and for the engineers and technologists who design it.

This third edition of the industry standard on biomedical equipment is still the most important resource of broad and deep information on biomedical equipment. Beginning with a review of the anatomy and physiology of the human body systems for which the instruments are designed, the book discusses Electro-Optics, Fiber Optics, and Lasers; Electromagnetic Interference; and the care of Battery-Operated Medical Equipment. The third edition of Introduction to Biomedical Equipment has been revised to reflect the latest information. It includes new chapters on biomedical equipment instrumentation and measurement technology; basic theories of measurement technology; and Quality Assurance and Continuous Quality Improvement. It also covers basic theory underlying signals and noise and provides expanded coverage and recent information on Ultrasonic imaging. An essential reference for every biomedical equipment professional as well as almost every other healthcare professional.

This book provides a straightforward introduction to the spectroscopy of diatomic molecules and is written at the level of intermediate undergraduate courses in physical chemistry and chemical physics. Following a general introduction to the subject, the second chapter lays out the essential quantum mechanical tools required to understand spectroscopy. Very little previous knowledge is assumed; mathematics is kept to a minimum, the treatment being only semi-quantitative. The following chapter uses this quantum mechanical framework to establish the selection rules which govern spectroscopic transitions. Chapters 4 - 7 describe the various branches of spectroscopy covered by the book; rotational, rotational - vibrational, Raman, and electronic spectroscopy. Quantum mechanics is used to derive formulae for the various energy levels involved and for the relative intensities of different types of transition. From these, the appearances of the different types of spectra are derived. The molecular parameters on which these spectra depend are defined and the structural information which can be derived from these is discussed.

Diatomic molecules are important to the physical sciences because they are the basic building blocks of large molecules. Many of the principles which underly our understanding of chemical bonds in molecules were first developed by studying diatomic systems. Starting from fundamental principles, this book develops a theory that analyzes the energy levels of diatomic molecules and summarizes the many experimental methods used to study the spectra of these molecules in the gaseous state.

C=C reactions are highly attractive as they are additions, and thus by nature highly atom-economic. Specific topics discussed: stereoselective addition of one or more carbon or heteroatom groups across a C=C bond (e.g., dihydroxylation, hydroboration, hydroamination, conjugate addition), epoxidation, aziridination, and cyclopropanation.This volume is part of a 3-volume set: Science of Synthesis Stereoselective Synthesis Workbench Edition Further information about Stereoselective Synthesis (including sample pages and the table of contents)
