Course Details
• Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering: An in-depth exploration of biomaterials used in medical devices and implants, including properties, selection criteria, and safety considerations. Tissue engineering principles and applications, such as scaffolds, growth factors, and cell cultures, will also be discussed.
• Biomechanics: This unit will cover the biomechanical principles and their applications in the design and analysis of medical devices and human movement. Topics include principles of mechanics, kinematics, and kinetics, as well as the mechanical properties of biological tissues.
• Clinical Engineering and Medical Instrumentation: Students will learn about the role of clinical engineers in healthcare facilities, medical equipment management, and quality assurance programs. This unit will also cover the principles of medical instrumentation, including sensors, transducers, signal processing, and data acquisition systems.
• Medical Imaging and Diagnostics: This unit will provide an overview of medical imaging modalities, including X-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine. Students will learn about image acquisition, processing, and analysis techniques, as well as their applications in medical diagnosis and therapy planning.
• Rehabilitation Engineering: This unit will cover the principles and applications of rehabilitation engineering, including assistive technology, prosthetics, and orthotics. Students will learn about the design, implementation, and evaluation of rehabilitation devices and systems, as well as the user-centered design approach.
• Biomedical Signal Processing: This unit will provide an overview of biomedical signal processing techniques, including filtering, feature extraction, and pattern recognition. Students will learn about the analysis and interpretation of physiological signals, such as ECG, EEG, EMG, and blood pressure signals.
• Medical Device Regulation and Quality Assurance: This unit will cover the regulatory framework for medical devices, including the FDA approval process, quality management systems, and risk management. Students will also learn about the ethical and legal considerations in medical device design and development.
