Abstract

Distributed modular system BioLab for biophysical examinations enabling assessment of the thyroid gland functional state is presented. Two smart sensors modules measuring 4 different biosignals are connected to an Ethernet based network and enable to obtain peripheral indicators of human cardiovascular and neuromuscular functions. Personal notebook or desktop computer with a network interface controls the sensors and performs processing and evaluation of measured biosignals
