Biomedical Engineering is a discipline aiming at exploiting engineering knowhow and technologies to the advancement of medical and biological sciences.
It is a multidisciplinary research and development activity investigating a variety of fields such as bioinformatics, medical imaging, image processing, physiological signal processing, biomechanics, biomaterials and bioengineering, systems analysis, 3D modeling, pharmaceutical drugs release etc. and combines them to improve solutions related to diagnostics and patient health care and develop technologies to investigate on complex causes of disease and their impact on humans.
Possible applications of biomedical engineering are the development and manufacture of biocompatible prostheses, medical devices, diagnostic devices and imaging equipments and pharmaceutical drugs.
