The influence of new medical instruments is large but not always easy to interpret. However, this author attempts to do just that. Included topics are: general trends, computers, economic considerations, and regulatory constraints. (BB)

After introducing computer terminology, the author states the purpose of a 3-week intensive summer course to afford practicing scientists familiarity with digital computers in chemical instrumentation. Describes equipment and personnel required. The course consists of fourteen formal lectures and fourteen laboratory assignments in digital logic,…

Described is the use of a general purpose hybrid computer in controlling and monitoring certain experiments on human subjects. In these investigations, researchers produce various sensory stimuli and measure participants' responses as voltage produced at a scalp node. The computer system discussed facilitates implementation of these experiments as…

This list of currently available films and filmstrips pertinent to instrumentation has been compiled from information solicited from many government and private sources. The 1969 compilation has been organized into the following eight categories: (1) principles of measurement and basic measurements; (2) analysis instrumentation; (3) automation and…
