An emphasis is placed on the <br />interrelatedness of such systems as the <br />skeletal, muscular, nervous and <br />circulatory. Formerly B1101. <br />B10110 BIOMEDICAL <br />INSTRUMENTATION <br />4 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: B10101 <br />This course covers Instrumentation <br />systems, Calibration, eiostatistics, <br />Terminology, Introduction to signal <br />conditioning, Amplifiers, Comparators, <br />Introduction to bio-potentials, Nervous <br />system organization, Signals, EMG, ECG, <br />Surface potentials, Normal Sinus <br />Rhythm, Electrodes, and related topics. <br />Formerly 81110A and B1120. <br />BIO110L BIOMEDICAL <br />INSTRUMENTATION LAB <br />2 UNITS <br />COREREQUISITE: B10110 <br />This lab allows students to apply their <br />knowledge in a lab setting as It applies <br />to B10110, Formerly BI110B. <br />810150 BIOMEDICAL ELECTRONIC <br />TROUBLESHOOTING <br />4 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: BIC110 <br />This course provides the student with <br />the opportunity to utilize the knowledge <br />gained In B10110 and B10110L to <br />troubleshoot and repair defective <br />circuits in biomedical electronic <br />equipment. Industrial safety precautions <br />are learned, and the student learns how <br />to isolate and diagnose problems in <br />electronic systems and devices. <br />Formerly EL214. <br />810150L BIOMEDICAL ELECTRONIC <br />TROUBLESHOOTING LAB <br />2 UNITS <br />COREQUISITE: B10150 <br />Students learn the methods and <br />approaches taken by an experienced <br />biomedical troubleshooter in the field. <br />They learn isolation, to utilize test <br />equipment, and techniques to enhance <br />their troubleshooting ability. They <br />become familiar with short cuts to <br />effective circuit repair, and become <br />adept at troubleshooting. Formerly <br />EL215. <br />810155 ADVANCED BIOMEDICAL <br />ELECTRONIC TROUBLESHOOTING <br />4 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: BI0150 <br />This course expands on the biomedical <br />troubleshooting techniques learned in <br />B10155 into more advanced <br />troubleshooting techniques as it relates <br />to medical devices. <br />B10155L ADVANCED BIOMEDICAL <br />ELECTRONIC TROUBLESHOOTING LAB <br />2 UNITS <br />COREQUISITE: B10155 <br />This course expands on the biomedical <br />troubleshooting techniques learned in <br />B10150L. <br />B10160 INTRODUCTION TO BIOMEDICAL <br />ENGINEERING <br />2 UNITS <br />This course introduces students to the <br />current trends the biomedical <br />engineering industry and discusses <br />general topics such as a survey of the <br />types of industries, career growth <br />process in the biomedical engineering <br />field, overview of regulations, roles of <br />engineers In the field, and other topics <br />as relevant. <br />B10320 FUNDAMENTALS OF <br />BIOMEDICAL IMAGING <br />4 UNITS <br />This course will Introduce the physical <br />and mathematical principles that are <br />the foundation of biomedical Imaging. <br />The application of these principles will <br />be demonstrated through Optical <br />Imaging, X-ray Computed Tomography <br />and Magnetic Resonance Imaging. <br />Formerly BME320. <br />B10320L BIOMEDICAL IMAGE <br />PROCESSING LAB <br />2 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: C220, B10320 <br />This lab allows students to apply their <br />knowledge in a lab setting as it applies <br />to 310320. <br />BI0430 BIOMATERIALS <br />4 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: CHEM200B <br />This course discusses various aspects <br />pertaining to the selection, processing, <br />testing (in vitro and in vivo( and <br />performance of biomedical materials. <br />The biocompatibility and surgical <br />applicability of metallic, polymeric and <br />ceramic implants and prosthetic devices <br />are discussed. The physico-chemical <br />Interactions between the implant <br />material and the physiological <br />environment will be described. The use <br />of biamaterlals In maxillofacial, <br />orthopedic, dental, ophthalmic and <br />neuromuscular applications is <br />presented. Formerly BME435. <br />B10440 BIOMECHANICS <br />4 UNITS <br />PREREQUISITE: PH2O0 <br />This course is an introduction to the <br />analysis of the musculoskeletal systems <br />using principles of engineering <br />mechanics. Basic principles of <br />mechanics, stress, strain and <br />deformation In beams are presented <br />and used to characterize the material <br />properties of tissues such as skin, <br />tendon, ligament, bone and cartilage. <br />Principles of biomechanics are also <br />applied to the design of medical devices <br />and bioengineered tissues. Topics <br />include forces, moments of forces, free <br />body diagrams, principal stresses, <br />transverse shear stresses and beam <br />loading. Formerly BME395. <br />B10490AL SENIOR DESIGN PROJECT A <br />3 UNITS <br />This course allows students to apply <br />concepts learned throughout the <br />program to work on a project that <br />showcases the students ability to apply <br />the engineering design process to <br />produce solutions that meet specified <br />needs as it relates to the Biomedical <br />Engineering field.
