Low Cost Wireless EEG System for Medical and Non-medical Applications

Low‐cost flexible thin‐film detector for medical dosimetry applications

The purpose of this study is to characterize dosimetric properties of thin film photovoltaic sensors as a platform for development of prototype dose verification equipment in radiotherapy. Towards this goal, flexible thin-film sensors of dose with embedded data acquisition electronics and wireless data transmission are prototyped and tested in kV and MV photon beams. Fundamental dosimetric prop...

Performance analysis of low rate wireless technologies for medical applications

In this article we discuss what wireless technologies can be used for medical applications and how well they perform in a healthcare/hospital environment. We consider the emerging low-rate Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) technology as specified in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.15.4 standard and evaluate its suitability to the medical environment. We focu...

Medical Applications of Non-Medical Research

"Low Power Wireless Technologies: An Approach to Medical Applications"

Wireless communication supposed a great both -quantitative and qualitative, jump in the management of the information, allowing the access and interchange of it without the need of a physical cable connection. The wireless transmission of voice and information has remained in constant evolution, arising new standards like BluetoothTM, WibreeTM or ZigbeeTM developed under the IEEE 802.15 norm. T...

Medical Applications of Wireless Networks

Coming along with the urgent development of wireless technology, wireless devices have invaded the medical area with a wide range of capability. Not only improving the quality of life of patients and doctor-patient efficiency, wireless technology enables clinicians to monitor patients remotely and give them timely health information, reminders, and support – potentially extending the reach of h...
