The Chemical of Medical and Dental Materials (Rsc Materials Monographs) |
|
|
From Book News, Inc. Artificial implants are seeing growing use in a number of branches of medicine and knowledge of the chemistry of those implants provides needed information about the nature of surface behavior, potential for degradation, and even, at the molecular level, their biological interactions. Nicholson (King's College School of Medicine and Dentistry, UK) describes the chemical properties of polymers, ceramics, metals, and hybrids. A separate chapter is devoted to the ... >> |

Biomechanics of Musculoskeletal Injury |
|
|
From Book News, Inc. Explores the mechanical bases of musculoskeletal injury to understand better the causal mechanisms, the effect of injury on tissues, and how the current knowledge of biomechanics can help prevent injury. Reviews such basics as the concepts of force, stress, stiffness, and elasticity and the mechanics of joints that are subject to disable injury. Then offers details of such injuries as inversion ankle sprains, stress fractures, rotator cuff tears, carpal tunnel s... >> |

Biomedical Signal Analysis : A Case-Study Approach (IEEE Press Series on Biomedical Engineering) |
|
|
From Book News, Inc. Rangayyan (electrical and computer engineering, U. of Calgary, Canada) focuses on developing algorithms for solving problems in the computer-aided analysis of biomedical signals. Beginning each chapter with certain type of problem of biomedical signals, he then presents signal processing, modeling, or analysis technique related to the problem, moving on to more sophisticated research approaches. Finally, illustrations of one or more real-life applications are d... >> |
