This workbook provides exercises and corresponding solutions to several subjects in medical
technology and engineering. Thereby the reader can learn how to solve problems in this field by
means of mathematical formulas and calculations. In order to provide a better understanding
the physical background for the solutions is shortly explained. The workbook covers excercises
on the following topics: -Interaction of X-rays with matter -X-ray tubes -X-ray dosimetry
-X-ray statistics -Ultrasound waves -Ultrasound scanner -Dipole fields in electrocardiography
-Electrocardiography instrumentation -Interaction of laser light with matter -Application of
laser radiation -Pulse oxymetry -High-frequency surgery -Computed radiography (CR) -Image
