Bioinstrumentation is an application of Biomedical Engineering, which focuses on the devices and mechanics used to measure and evaluate biological systems. It is a new and upcoming field, concentrating on treating diseases and bridging together the engineering and medical worlds. The majority of innovations within the field have occurred in the past 15-20 years. Bioinstrumentation has revolutionized the medical field, and has made treating patients much easier. The instruments/sensors convert signals found within the body into electrical signals. [1] There are many subfields within bioinstrumentation, they include: biomedical options, creation of sensor, genetic testing, and drug delivery. [2] Other fields of engineering, such as electrical engineering and computer science, are related to bioinstrumentation. [1]
Start of the Field
Biomedical Optics
Biomedical Optics is the field of performing noninvasive operations and procedures to patients. This has been a growing field, as it is easier and does not require the patient to be opened. [2] One example of biomedical optics is
Circuits/Creation of Sensors
Genetic Testing
Drug Delivery
