Lehrinhalte
Biomedical engineering supports medicine with technical solutions in the areas of prevention, diagnostics and therapy. This module focuses on applications in the fields of anesthesiology, internal medicine, neurology and dentistry. Punctually, other disciplines complement the program. In particular, current research and development projects in the field of device technology are presented, taking into account the underlying biotechnology. In addition, anatomy and functional processes in the human body are presented and discussed in the context of common clinical pictures. By this, the transfer of scientific questions from a fundamental area and theory into real clinical application will be illustrated by practical examples. Methods and devices with which the anatomy and functions of the body can be represented, are in a particular focus. One core area is the understanding and application of medical imaging and image processing such as segmentation, filtering and image reconstruction. The use and importance of different devices and methods are presented in a problem-oriented manner. This includes the use of interventional procedures that includes invasive patient treatment by imaging support. The second core area is presentation and application of intracorporeal sensory and actuarial systems detecting and affecting body functions minimal invasively.
