NDT 100 - Biomedical Electronics

2 CR

Previously ENDT 100.
Introduction to the field of EEG and its use in medicine and surgery. Emphasizes: instrumentation, principles of conversion between analog and digital signals, localization techniques for bipolar and referential montage, and the purpose of bipolar and referential montage. Technical principles in actual operation of a laboratory are introduced in the classroom and applied in the clinical area of EEG. Either ENDT 100 or NDT 100 may be taken for credit, but not both.

Prerequisite(s): Acceptance into program.
