The purpose of this course is to serve as an introduction to and an overview of the field of biomedical engineering. Considering this purpose, a link between biomedicine and electrical engineering will be given. Students should be able to understand and define the discipline of biomedical engineering, basic physiological and electrophysiological mechanisms, basic bioelectric signals, electrodes and registration techniques. They will also acquire an introductory knowledge about the most important diagnostic and therapeutic electromedical equipment and safety assurance in medical facilities.
