| TBMT01 | Biomedical Signal Processing, 6 ECTS credits. /Analys av bioelektriska signaler/ |
||
|
Area of Education: Medicine Subject area: Biomedical Engineering |
|||
| Advancement level
(A-D): C
|
|||
| Aim: The course gives an in-depth analysis of the origin and processing of physiological signals. In particular, electrophysiological signals generated by the heart as well as the central and peripheral nervous system are studied. Various models for analysis of these signals are presented and discussed. The course also comprise different methods for digital signal processing. |
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) TSIT64 Signal Theory Y or TSIT65 Signal Theory D, TBME50 Biomedical Engineering, TBME02 Anatomy and Physiology. Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
|||
| Supplementary courses: TBMT02 Medical Imaging |
|||
| Organisation: The course is partly based on problem based learning and comprises lectures, problem solving in groups and laboratory work. |
|||
| Course contents: Signal analysis: time- and frequency, sampling, digital signals, Fouriertransform (FFT), estimation of the power spectrum, input windows, leakage, aliasing, convolution and correlation properties, z-transform, digital filters Physiological and mathematical models of bioelectricity: cell membrane, resting- and action potentials, Nernst equation, volume conducting, forward- och inverse problems Measurement of bioelectrical signals: electrode properties, measurement systems Electrocardiography: origin of the ECG, ECG-leads, ECG analysis Neurophysiology: nervous system, muscles, EEG, EP, EMG, ERG, EOG, signal analysis Electrostimulation: defibrillation, pacemakers, electrostimulation Laboratory experiment: biosignal processing |
|||
| Course literature: A compendium with selected book chapters and journal articles will be provided by the department of Biomedical Engineering. |
