Cutting-edge coverage of mechatronics in medical systems
Mechatronics in Medicine: A Biomedical Engineering Approach describes novel solutions for utilizing mechatronics to design innovative, accurate, and intelligent medical devices and optimize conventional medical instruments. After an introduction to mechatronics, the book addresses sensing technologies, actuators and feedback sensors, mechanisms and mechanical devices, and processing and control systems. Artificial intelligence, expert systems, and medical imaging are also covered. This pioneering guide concludes by discussing applications of mechatronics in medicine and biomedical engineering and presenting seven real-world medical case studies.
In-depth details on:
Sensing technology
Electromechanical, fluid, pneumatic power, and other types of actuators
Feedback sensors
Mechanisms, mechanical devices, and their functions
Principles and methods of processing and controlling mechatronics systems
Artificial intelligence, expert systems, artificial neural networks, fuzzy systems, and neuro fuzzy systems
Medical imaging, including ultrasound, MRI, CT scan, and nuclear imaging
Medical case studies in mechatronics
Professor Siamak Najarian completed his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering at Oxford University, England and had a pos-doc position at the same university for one year. Prof. Najarian serves as the Full-Professor and Dean of Faculty of Biomedical Engineering at Amirkabir University of Technology. His research interests are the applications of artificial tactile sensing (especially in robotic surgery) and design of artificial organs. He is the author and translators of 23 books in the field of biomedical engineering, 8 of which are written in English. Prof. Najarian has published more than 130 international journal and conference papers in the field of biomedical engineering. Professor Javad Dargahi received his B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering in the UK. He was a Research Assistant at the Glasgow Caledonian University, Glasgow, UK and an Assistant Professor at the Amirkabir University of Technology, Tehran, Iran. He was a Senior Post-Doctoral Research Associate with the Micromachining/Medical Robotics Group at Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, B.C., Canada. Prof. Dargahi worked in a few companies in North America. He is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Concordia.
