What is Bioinstrumentation?
Bioinstrumentation involves the measurement of current or voltage signals from the different parts of the body. The measurement of various physiological signals produced by the body helps in diagnosis and treatment of diseases. In actual fact, when we talk about bioinstrumentation we mean biomedical instrumentation. Basic Bioinstrumentation System The quantity, property, or condition that is…

The Functions of Signal Conditioners in Biomedical Measurement Systems
In a Biomedical measurement system, the electrodes pick up the bioelectrical potential whereas the transducer converts the physiological signal to be measured into a usable electrical output. The outputs from the Bioelectrodes/transducers are then converted into an electrical quantity that is suitable for operating a display or recording device with the help of a signal…

Sources of Biomedical Signals
Biomedical signals/physiological signals are those signals (phenomenon that conveys information) which are used primarily for extracting information on a biological system under investigation. Our body produces various physiological signals. The accessibility to these signals is important because these signals: All physiological signals can grouped as: A transducer converts a physical signal into an electrical output.…
