The application of engineering principles and design concepts to medicine and biology for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes is referred to as biomedical engineering. It spans a broad array of subfields such as bioinformatics, biomechanics, biomaterials science, biomedical optics, tissue engineering, genetic engineering, neural engineering, pharmaceutical engineering and clinical engineering. Some of the prominent applications of biomedical engineering are development of biocompatible prostheses, imaging equipment such as MRIs and ECGs, regenerative tissue growth, pharmaceutical drugs, and therapeutic biologicals. This book attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under the discipline of biomedical engineering and how such concepts have practical applications. The various studies that are constantly contributing towards advancing technologies and evolution of this field are examined in detail. This book will help the readers in keeping pace with the rapid changes in this field.
