Learning objectives

The learning objectives of the course are: providing the student with a general knowledge of the problems connected with the use - especially in the medical and clinical field - of instruments, implantable device and machines, even complex ones; make the student acquire the fundamental knowledge to describe the basic functioning principles of such instruments and become capable of analyzing events connected with their interaction with biological systems (e.g. assessing the effects of X rays or ultrasonic waves as the physical characteristics of the tissues analyzed change, or the action of electrodes on skin...); illustrate to the students the electrical diagrams and the designing phases of the main biomedical instruments.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Fundamentals of engineering properties of materials and physiology.

Program

Acquisition and analysis of analog and digital biomedical signals
Safety considerations for the commercialization of biomedical instrumentation
Biomedical imaging instrumentation (computational tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, nuclear medicine)
Biomedical sensors for physical, optical and electrochemical measurements
Examples of biomedical instrumentation (e.g. Pacemakers, defibrillators, biomedical lasers, electrosurgical units)

Bibliography

Visualizza la bibliografia con Leganto, strumento che il Sistema Bibliotecario mette a disposizione per recuperare i testi in programma d'esame in modo semplice e innovativo.

Didactic methods
