Course programme
Biomedical engineering is the application of engineering practices to human health issues. Biomedical engineering technologies improve the lives of people every minute of every day. Examples of the technologies that biomedical engineers have developed and improved to diagnose and treat a wide range of diseases are:
- Improved imaging methodologies for cancer detection
- Novel methods to analyze medical images and present additional information to physicians
- New technologies to understand electrical conduction abnormalities in the heart to better respond to heart attacks and arrhythmias
- New technologies to provide selective delivery of drugs, such as chemotherapy agents, to areas of interest in the body without damaging healthy tissues
