3. Biomedical Instrumentation is the field of
creating such instruments that help us to
measure, record and transmit data to or
from the body.
Biomedical Instrumentation
4. Medical Instrumentation
Design of instrument must match:
i) Measurement need Environmental
conditions, safety, reliability etc
ii) Instrument performance that is speed, power,
resolution, range etc
5. What a Medical Device is?
Any item promoted for a medical purpose that
does not rely on chemical action to a achieve its
intended effect.
i.e any electrical or mechanical device for
medical applications.

Instrumentation System
• A Measuring system is required to compare a quantity with a standardor
to provide an output that can be related to the quantity being measured
• The quantity to be measured is detected by an input transducer or sensor.
• The detected quantity may be converted to a mechanical or electrical form
of energy
Display
Recorder
Signal
conditioner

15. • Future of
Bioinstrumentation is very
bright. Day by day new
ideas are researched and
implemented. Such as;
– utilization the power of
the body to power devices
– bringing more advanced
prosthetics
– new methods of diagnosis
and treatment of diseases
and problems which were
not there before.
– Etc.
Future Of Bioinstrumentation
16. Brain hacking
• Brain hacking refers the
possibility to attack the
human brain to extract
sensitive information such
as data and memories,
including also
the capability to inject new
information.
• The art of technology
allow to perceive changes
in the magnetic field
related to brain activity
making possible reading of
people’s thoughts.
17. • When thinking of the future Biomedical instrumentation
will have, we can be sure that it will have an important
role in bringing about a better understanding and ways
to communicate with the brain.
