| Popis: | Knowledge of signal processing is very important for medical students. A medical signal may be used for monitoring, constructing an image, or for extracting the numerical quantity of a parameter. This information forms a basis for medical decisions. However, the processing of the signal may lead to distortion and an incorrect interpretation. The present article describes an educational practical for first year medical students. It uses the electrocardiogram, which can be obtained easily, as a convenient example of a medical signal. The practical was developed at the VU University Amsterdam and summarizes the elementary concepts of signal processing. |
