Medical Instrumentation: Application and Design

Basics of medical instruments covered in this book.

Good book.But never expected this from Amazon:/

Not helpful as accepted

This is not an introductory book, but it is one which sits directly above my desk as a quick reference for all things related to medical devices.

Great book, and how can you beat the price?

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.

horrible, waste of money dont buy it

Explains dynamic characteristics of circuits very well. It has a ton of information - which can be too much. If you are just starting out in a course on instrumentation, I would recommend, "Principles of Bioinstrumentation" by Normann. His book is much simpler. Ideally, you should get both,..., it depends what level you are at (as a 4th year bioengineering student, I preferred the simple version...)
