In 1994, in my role as Technical Program Chair for the 17th Annual
International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and
Biology Society, I solicited proposals for mini-symposia to provide
delegates with accessible summaries of important issues in research
areas outside their particular specializations. Terry Peters and
his colleagues submitted a proposal for a symposium on Fourier
Trans forms and Biomedical Engineering whose goal was "to
demystify the Fourier transform and describe its practical
application in biomedi cal situations". This was to be achieved by
presenting the concepts in straightforward, physical terms with
examples drawn for the parti cipants work in physiological signal
analysis and medical imaging. The mini-symposia proved to be a
great success and drew a large and appreciative audience. The only
complaint being that the time allocated, 90 minutes, was not
adequate to allow the participants to elaborate their ideas
adequately. I understand that this feedback helped the authors to
develop this book.
