Abstract:
"This comprehensive, edited book brings together topics in therapeutic and rehabilitative engineering, ranging from prosthetics to sensory substitution and medical robotics. Drawing on the expertise of a multidisciplinary field of contributors, it discusses both diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of health care and rehabilitation, including healthcare informatics, biomedical signal processing, sensors, and robotic prosthetics. Presenting a system-level approach to therapeutic engineering, it explores the current state and future directions of this rapidly advancing and cutting-edge field"--Provided by publisher.
