Bio-engineering - A perspective


C.P. Rodseth

Abstract

Bio-engineering is a general term used to describe the application of engineering techniques to the study of medical problems. Some fields of bio-engineering research are described, and the suggestion is made that a bio-engineer be included in the clinical team. The question of regularising the position of bio-engineering within the medical and supplementary professions is raised.
