Implantable Neuroprostheses for Restoring Function, Hardback Book

Implantable Neuroprostheses for Restoring Function Hardback

Edited by Kevin (Associate Director of Technology at the Cleveland FES Center, USA) Kilgore

Part of the Woodhead Publishing Series in Biomaterials series

Hardback

Description

Research and developments in neuroprostheses are providing scientists with the potential to greatly improve the lives of individuals who have lost some function.

Neuroprostheses can help restore or substitute motor and sensory functions which may have been damaged as a result of injury or disease.

However, these minute implantable sensors also provide scientists with challenges.

This important new book provides readers with a comprehensive review of neuroprostheses.

Chapters in part one are concerned with the fundamentals of these devices.

Part two looks at neuroprostheses for restoring sensory function whilst part three addresses neuroprostheses for restoring motor function.

The final set of chapters discusses significant considerations concerning these sensors.
