Summary

This subject follows the subject of Medical Instrumentation I and deals with the issue of diagnostic and therapeutic medical devices. Gradually, the principles, diagrams, technical solutions of devices, function and the use of this technique according to the clinical disciplines are discussed. It emphasizes the specific role of medical devices in terms of their application. Great emphasis is placed on exercises in which students attend the clinical workplace where medical electrical appliances are used. Here, they are practically acquainted with the operation and clinical examination of these devices.
