    "abstract": "The restricted-path-integral (RPI) theory of continuous quantum measurements\nincluding the evolution of the measured systems and phenomenon of decoherence\nis reviewed. The measured system is considered as an open quantum system but\nwithout usage of any model of the measurement (of the measuring medium or the\nsystem\u0027s environment). The propagator of a measured system (conditioned by the\nmeasurement readout) is presented by RPI. In the important special case of\nmonitoring an observable the propagator and the system\u0027s wave function satisfy\nSchroedinger equation with a complex Hamiltonian (depending on the measurement\nreadout). Going over to the non-selective description of the measurement leads\nto the Lindblad master equation. In case of non-minimally disturbing\nmeasurements this gives theory of dissipative systems avoiding difficulties of\nother approaches. The whole theory is deduced from first principles of quantum\nmechanics. This proves that quantum mechanics includes theory of measurements\nand is therefore conceptually closed.",
