Recent Developments and Achievements in Biocybernetics and Biomedical Engineering: Proceedings of the 20th Polish Conference on Biocybernetics and Biomedical Engineering, Kraków, Poland, September 20-22, 2017

Biocybernetics and biomedical engineering is currently considered a promising approach to improving healthcare – and consequently quality of life. Innovative technical solutions not only respond to the needs of caregivers, but also stimulate the development of medical sciences by supporting medical practitioners, and we are currently witnessing a profound change of the role of medicine that has become ubiquitous in everyday life thanks to recent technological advances. The development of civilization manifests itself in a growing focus on investigating the secrets of the human life, continuous efforts to support life, and mimicking biological systems in engineering.

Presenting the latest developments in all areas of biomedical engineering, the book is a valuable resource for researchers and scientists in the field.
