Golden accomplishments in biomedical engineering

摘要: The 50th anniversary of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS) is an appropriate time to look back at origins growth both field biomedical engineering EMBS. present account gives most attention aspects which members (and, earlier, American Institute Electrical Engineers (AIEE) Radio (IRE) members) contributed, say that this emphasizes electrical, electronic, computing engineering. Topics covered include: history technologies; roots engineering; prehistory profession; applications computer; health care; ultrasound technology; new means medical imaging; endoscopy, lasers, fear electromagnetic fields; study human metabolism; Human Genome Project, robotics, internationalization; forecasting progress
