Top Five Biomedical Innovations of the last decade-Biomedical news

As the decade comes to an end, we’ve asked Xconomists and other technology leaders around the country to identify the top innovations they’ve seen in their fields the past 10 years, or predict the top disruptive technologies that will impact the next decade.

  1. Increasing use, validation and acceptance of surrogate endpoints for clinical trials.
  2. Novartis’ imatinib (Gleevec). The first drug for specifically inhibiting an enzyme causing cancer rather than killing fast dividing cells….
  3. Human papillomavirus vaccines. This is both for innovative science, and innovative treatment of a vaccine for a virus tied to cancer.

BIOSTEC 2010-BIOMEDICAL CONFERENCE

3rd International Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies

Venue:

Valencia-Spain

Event Date:

20-23 January, 2010

The purpose of the 3rd International Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies is to bring together researchers and practitioners, including engineers, biologists, health professionals and informatics/computer scientists, interested in both theoretical advances and applications of information systems, artificial intelligence, signal processing, electronics and other engineering tools in knowledge areas related to biology and medicine.
BIOSTEC is composed of three co-located conferences, each specialized in at least one of the aforementioned main knowledge areas.

WHAT ARE THE KEY AREAS OF BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING

According to surveys biomedical engineering field is most upcoming field all over the world

breakthroughs in biomedical field have been the most in last decade or so!

According to surveys
The “Healthcare Economy” is booming every day and after like the graph below:

Per Capita Healthcare spending (USA)  will increase by >10% in 2002 and is expected to be over 20% of GDP by 2025

What Will Be the 10 Hottest Jobs?

WHAT US THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DIGITAL AND ANALOG HEARIND AID?-BASIC CLINICAL SCIENCES

Digital hearing aid

Analogue hearing aid

Digital hearing aid Translate sound to digital code, change it and re-transmit it back by using mathematical calculations.

Distinguish different sounds and therefore amplify all sounds differently.

Produces a high quality sound that is extremely accurate.

Duplicates sound transmission.

Digital circuitry is typically the most expensive.

Background noise reduction.

Feedback is used for reduction or cancellation of noise.

All sound frequency are dealt with.

Analogue hearing aid directly converts sound waves to electrical waves.

Do not distinguish different sounds and therefore amplify all sounds equally, which means some sounds, are too loud while others may be difficult to hear. This is rectified when the hearing aid user adjusts the volume

Sound quality has to be compromised and lot of manual work is required.

The sound transmitted has some error.

Cheaper as compared to digital one.

Background noise no cancelled.

No such feedback circuitry is used.

Analogue hearing aids are designed with a particular frequency response based on your hearing test.
