Books in the Biological and Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering series

Praise for Hemo-Dynamics: "This book provides an elegant and intuitive derivation of the fundamental mathematics underlying fluid flow, and then applies these in a straightforward way to pulsatile blood flow in all its complexity.

This book reviews the neural theory and translates them into digital models. It gives applications in image recognition, foveation, image fusion and information extraction, and includes Python scripts that help readers replicate results presented in the text.

This book deals with medical and biological physics. A survey is given on properties and applications of biocompatible materials. The are used to substitute malfunctional human organs.

Provides the professional with an overview of current methodologies in the field, with emphasis on the implementation of current research.

With growing connections between physics and the life sciences, this text introduces the terminology and the biological systems physicists encounter. It sets out the dynamics of complex systems, and provides a problem-solving challenge from the literature.

In addition to surveying the latest developments in our understanding of the respiratory system, this book on a topic boosted by recent advances in imaging and computational fluid dynamics disentangles the complexities and includes guidelines on best practice.

The topic of this book is the development of automated and inexpensive tools that transfer medical tests from a specialized clinical laboratory directly to the point of care, using biochip technology. They can use this book as a review of the field and as a guide for the development of novel biochip technology for point of care medicine.
