Design Development and Analysis of a Nerve Conduction Study System An Auto Controlled Biofeedback Approach

The nerve conduction study (NCS) is becoming increasingly important in biomedical field for detection of nerve condition. Over the past decades, there has been increasing focus on research devoted to PC based NCS system for developing quick, accurate, reliable, simple and cost effective systems. Generally PC based commercially available NCS machines are used by the neurophysiologists to study nerve related diseases which are expensive, bulky as well as difficult to operate without a specialist. So design and development of an embedded µC based system is the salient concern for the researchers to acquire and study the NCS signal. However, considerable challenges still exists, therefore research pursuit on new measuring techniques and development of appropriate design could provide a viable solution for further analysis. In this research, such areas are investigated which were previously less unexplored than expected.
