Review
"This volume is a step toward increasing exchanges between fuzzy researchers and the biomedicineThe last chapter, split into two parts, provides a useful summary of hardware requirements for biomedical usage, including issues of reliability, cost, and biocompatibility[Chapters 3 to 5] will be of interest to the biomedical engineeror graduate students as a supplement to a text." - IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Magazine, May/June 1999
Product Description
"Fuzzy and Neuro-Fuzzy Systems in Medicine" provides a thorough review of state-of-the-art techniques and practices, defines and explains relevant problems, as well as provides solutions to these problems. After an introduction, the book progresses from one topic to another - with a linear development from fundamentals to applications.The chapters discuss: a historical perspective of fuzzy systems technology and neuro-fuzzy systems technology in medicine and biology; the relationship of fuzzy logic to the human brain analysis and classification of signals using fuzzy, neuro-fuzzy, and wavelet methods; wavelet analysis combined with neuro-fuzzy systems in contouring gated SPECT images of ventricles; a detailed application based on a knowledge-based system that uses fuzzy techniques, multispectral analysis, and image processing algorithms; applications in the field of dentistry; a dedicated system for myocardial ischemia diagnosis; a typical expert system used in intensive care units; designing and tuning fuzzy rules for medical diagnosis; knowledge processing, decision-making, and control strategies combined with control methods in medical equipment; and current technological problems and trends in the neural and fuzzy hardware implementation field. The well-balanced chapters cover all the major fields in medicine and biomedical engineering, including imaging, prosthetics, psychology, medical equipment, diagnosis, and treatment.
