Biomedical Instrumentation & Sensors

Biomedical Instrumentation and Sensors is a course designed to introduce students to the use of instrumentation and sensors in the field of biomedical engineering. The course focuses on the fundamentals of instrumentation, including the principles of operation, calibration and maintenance of biomedical instrumentation. Students will learn how to construct and troubleshoot electronic circuits, as well as how to use a variety of biomedical sensors. Additionally, the course will cover topics such as medical imaging, signal processing, and instrumentation safety. The course will also include a variety of hands-on lab activities to give students the opportunity to practice their knowledge and gain an understanding of the practical use of biomedical instrumentation and sensors. Upon completion of the course, students should be able to analyze and interpret biomedical signals, design and construct circuits, and utilize biomedical instrumentation and sensors in a variety of contexts.
