1 Year
Develop your skills, knowledge, and understanding of engineering design, medical imaging technologies and the clinical environment whilst learning how to apply, develop, and improve medical imaging and biotechnological products and systems.You will be trained in electrical, microwave, magnetic, acoustic, and optical techniques relevant to life sciences, along with analytical and imaging techniques relevant for biology, biomolecular, and clinical sciences.To help you understand biological terminology, you will also receive broad practical training in biology and biomolecular sciences.Under the guidance of our academic staff, you will undertake a research project where you will have access to the best medical imaging and ultrasound equipment in Scotland, within our Clinical Imaging and Intervention Research Centre.12 months Full Time
Aims: To provide a grounding in the theory of relevant biomedical measurement systems including sensors, signal acquisition and conditioning principles, measurement techniques and instrumentation and detectors; To impart the basic theory and physiological interactions of medical imaging modalities (including microscopy, endoscopy, x-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI, PET and IR) and review applications and image-guided interventions; To teach the basic physiological and anatomical principles of surgical interventions, interventional radiology and how the imaging objectives relate to disease and treatment.
To provide the student with: Knowledge of biomaterials in particular of applications in tissue engineering and biocompatibility; Knowledge of interaction between biological systems and prosthetic materials during tissue regeneration; An understanding of the physiological effects of exercise; Experience in computer modelling of biomechanical properties of tissue; A basic understanding of natural biomaterials.
Aims: To provide an opportunity to develop skills in research, investigative methods and design in an area of biomedical engineering of interests; To develop a high level of competence in a particular biomedical engineering topic; To develop in the conduct of a project requiring individual responsibility and initiative; To provide guidance in working independently on a project; To develop and improve skills in project planning and implementation, team working and communication with peers and experts.
You will be able to know, understand and identify the components and structures of different of the anatomical systems. You will be able to identify major muscles and muscle groups and understand how they act, either alone or in conjunction with others.
