Customer Reviews

One of the BEST seller at Amazon.com!!!!!

The book received is brand new as the seller described. the price is reasonable too. 5 starts for the recommended seller. Thank you!

Required text for a class

It's not bad. Extremely detailed and really does a good job explaining how medical devices work, but its not up to date. Most references for the chapters are from the 1960s/70s, which is good because it references the original work. I think an updated version would helpful.

Not what I ordered, but ok

I ordered the thrid edition, hardcover version of this book, I got the India edition of the book. It is page for page the same as the hardcover book, it is just cheaper qaulity. The pages are falling out of the binding and they easily rip. The contents of the book are actually pretty cool. As far as engineering textbooks go, it is not that bad. Just make sure you are getting what you paid for.

Electronic Medical Instrumentation

As a coursebook, I found 'Medical Instrumentation' to be a sound survey of electrical medical diagnostic instrumentation. The book does review electrical therapeutic medical instrumentation; however, it's coverage is not as thorough.This is an excellent resource for engineers planning to specialize in medical device design.A good understanding of physiology is necessary to fully utilize the Medical Instrumentation text. If you have little medical background, I recommend Review of Medical Physiology (by William Ganong) as a companion.

very good

This book is very good about medical devices and application
