BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING IS broadly defined as the application of engineering principles to problems in clinical medicine and surgery. The origins of biomedical engineering are often linked to the pioneering electrophysiology studies of Galvani and Volta more than 200 years ago. During the first half of the 20th century, the electrical properties of tissues and cells continued to be a primary foc...
