what is Medical application of biochemical engineering?

[jaseela123d]

Biomedical engineering (BME) is the application of engineering principles and design concepts to medicine and biology for health purposes (eg, diagnostic or therapeutic). This field seeks to bridge the gap between engineering and medicine by combining engineering design and problem solving skills with the medical and biological sciences to advance the treatment of medical care including diagnosis, monitoring and therapy . Biomedical engineering has only recently emerged as its own study, compared to many other fields of engineering. Such evolution is common as a new field that goes from being an interdisciplinary specialization between already established fields, to be considered a field in itself. Much of the work in biomedical engineering consists of research and development, covering a wide range of subfields (see below). Prominent applications of biomedical engineering include the development of biocompatible prostheses, various diagnostic and therapeutic medical devices ranging from clinical equipment to microimplants, common imaging equipment such as magnetic resonance imaging and EEG, regenerative tissue, drug and product growth Biological therapies.


A series of biomedical engineering approaches to aid in the detection and treatment of tropical diseases such as dengue, malaria, cholera, schistosomiasis, lymphatic filariasis, ebola, leprosy, leishmaniasis and American trypanosomiasis. Many different forms of non-invasive approaches such as ultrasound, echocardiography and electrocardiography, bioelectrical impedance, optical detection, simplified and rapid serological tests, such as on-chip laboratory platforms and micro / nano fluidics, and medical support systems such as artificial intelligence Clinical support. The article also reviewed the new systems of clinical diagnosis and management using techniques of artificial intelligence and bioelectrical impedance for clinical applications of dengue.
