Biotelemetry XIV

The International Society of Biotelemetry was founded in 1973 with the objective of promoting the technology of biotelemetry and its application to Medicine and Life Sciences. International Symposia are held every two years at venues that rotate between Europe, North America, and the other continents. The Proceedings of the 14th International Symposium on Biotelemetry held in Marburg, Germany, from April 6-11, 1997, document the highly interdisciplinary activity of biotelemetry in the fields of engineering, physics, biology, physiology, and medicine. The chapters correspond to the 12 sessions of the scientific programme covering the following topics: Technologies for Biotelemetry; Optical Telemetry; Sensors in Telemetry; Telemedicine; Clinical Medicine, Sleep Medicine and Pneumology; Implantable Telemetry; ECG Monitoring and Processing; Blood Pressure Monitoring; Telemetry in Wildlife and Small Animals; Underwater Telemetry; Telemetry in Birds; Satellite Telemetry.
