1997 Ieee 10th Symposium On Computer Based Medical Systems

1997 IEEE 10th Symposium on Computer-Based Medical Systems

Following the lead of multinational corporations, the symposium with this meeting has moved overseas into less-developed countries. A selection of 50 papers cover knowledge-based systems, image processing and analysis, information systems, cardiovascular technologies, signal processing, reliability and safety, software development, and prosthetic devices. Researchers and practitioners discuss such specific topics as the computer aided ultrasound laboratory, mobile computing in military ambulatory care, the convergent assessment of radiographic diagnostic systems, and designing and implementing an automatic computer-controlled infusion pump.
