Quoting relevant examples, write an essay that describes, analyses, and evaluates recent developments involving Biomedical Engineering applications in the following area (no more than 1000 words):
Pharmaceutical Engineering
Biomedical engineering
Biomedical engineering (BME) is the combination of application of engineering principles and designing concepts to biology and medicine for advanced healthcare in diagnostic,monitoring,and therapy.The word first coined by Britsh scientist and broadcast by Heinz Wolff.BME includes various branches such as mathematics,physics,chemistry and biology.
Bioengineering mainly intrest in two important area
1.It applyes the principles of engineering sciences to understand functioning of living organism
2.Applies engineering technologies to develop and design new device like therapeautic or diagnostic instruments or formulation of novel biomaterials for medical application,artificial tissue,organs designing,farming of new delivery technologies.
With the contribution of BME which improves in diagnostic imaging and implanted therapeauticmedical devices which range from clinical equipment to microplants,common imaging devices eg :EEG,MRI drugs etc...
Pharmaceautical engineering
Pharmaceatical engineering its covering all parts of the drug manufacturing,designing nes facility to optimizing manufacturing processes and perfecting packaging solution.And mainly focused on discovering,formulating,and manufacturingmedication,as well as analytical and quality control processes.It utilizes the other fields such as chemical engineering,biomedical engineering and pharmaceautical sciences.
APPLICATIONS
1. EEG(Electroencephalogram)
EEG is a test to evaluate the electrical activityin the brain.Brain cells which communicate with each other through electrical impulses.And also used to help detect potential problems associated with this activity.
MRI (Magnified resonance inaging)
MRI is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to form pictures of the anatomy and physiological process of the body .The scanners use strong magnetic fields,gradients,and radiowaves to generateimages of the organs in the body.
other number of techniques and equipments are available in the biomedical application where observed.
