No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1971–72 to 1994–95; the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
This course develops an understanding of the fundamental concepts of biomedical engineering through the review of the basic functioning aspects of several major physiological systems, through the analysis of mathematical models used to represent the systems and through the study of techniques used to measure pertinent parameters of these systems. In addition, a number of current clinically used medical imaging techniques are covered. The major physiological systems covered include the neuromuscular, cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Imaging techniques analyzed include X-ray, CT Scan, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging and positive emission topography.
As printed in the 1991–92 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
