Abstract

The present issue of Biomedical Engineer ing is devoted to impor tant problems of the system approach to the development, production, and technical service of medical equipment . These problems have been discussed earl ier in Biomedical Engineer ing (see 1980, No. 6; 1983, No. 4). The system approach embraces practically the whole process of development , product ion, and use of medical equipment (see Table 1) and is closely related to the problem of op t imum provision of medical services of various profile. Recent progress in biomedical engineer ing has significantly extended the scope of the problems related to the development of medical equ ipment and its methodical support. Computer iza t ion plays a key role in the process. Computers are incorporated in medical devices as separate control units or builtin elements of various level of integrity. The integral processing elements rel ieve the medical personnel from t ime-consuming and tedius calculation of results of diagnostic examinations. They also allow automat ic realt ime presenta t ion of all the necessary diagnostic information.
