Basic Introduction to Bioelectromagnetics, Third Edition, is a primary source for medical technologists and life scientists seeking to understand how electromagnetic fields interact with the body, and how they are used in medical applications. Instead of the complex math commonly used when analyzing electromagnetics, this book uses graphical methods and simple equations. The third edition is updated with color graphics that show the fields in bright, clear colors. Each concept is presented with an associated discussion and application, including MRI, NMR, hyperthermia, neural stimulation, ultrasound, and cardiac pacing/defibrillation.Offering a simplified explanation of a very complex subject, this third edition provides an accessible introduction for life scientists and medical technologist on how EM fields work, what controls them, and the factors important to experimental setups and medical applications.
Reviews of Basic Introduction to Bioelectromagnetics, Third Edition
'This book presents a complicated topic in a simple way using examples and illustrations to provide general intuition on the important concepts of Bioelectromagnetics. The reader can grasp the fundamental concepts of biolelectromagnetics without the requirement for a strong background in vector calculus and partial differential equations. This book is perfect for people working in the life science world that want to understand the fundamental concepts behind the electromagnetic tools they use in their work.'- Dr. Rock Hadley, Research Assistant Professor, University of Utah
