MRI perilous for pacemaker patients:IMAGING STUDY
Exposure to an MRI magnetic field can cause unintended cardiac stimulation and considerably alter pulse in patients implanted with pacemakers–conditions that can have potentially devastating consequences–according to research published Dec. 15 in BioMedical Engineering Online.
Howard I. Bassen, a researcher with the FDA in Rockville, Md., and Gonzalo G. Mendoza, a biomedical engineer at Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., measured the electric fields (E-fields) induced near the tips of pacemakers by a simulated MRI gradient system to assess the risks involved in patients with a cardiac device who undergo MRI.
According to the researchers, “patients are generally not allowed (by present practices) to undergo MRI procedures if they have implanted cardiac and neurological stimulations devices,” however, some clinicians “condone scanning patients” implanted with cardiac pacemakers. In addition, Bassen and Gonzalo noted that there has been a push to develop medical implants that are MRI compatible.

HEREDITY GENETIC CODE,RNA & DNA-TUTORIAL
- Image via Wikipedia
Information is Stored in the Code Letters of DNA
- All hereditary information is stored in genes, which are parts of giant DNA molecules
- Genes code for the amino acids of proteins
- DNA is the archival copy of the code- kept in nucleus where it is protected & repaired
- DNA is organized with special proteins into chromosomes
- For protein synthesis a working copy of the code is made from RNA
- Overall scheme: DNA -> RNA -> protein
- Another version: “One gene, one enzyme”
HOW TO DESIGN A CAREER IN BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING-FROM IEEE PAPER
ABSTRACT
What kind of career do you imagine for yourself? Doctor? Lawyer?
Scientist? Engineer? Teacher? CEO? Manager? Salesperson?
A university degree in biomedical engineering will prepare you for
all of these professions and more. Biomedical engineers use their expert-
ise in biology, medicine, physics, mathematics, engineering science and
communication to make the world a healthier place. The challenges cre-
ated by the diversity and complexity of living systems require creative,
knowledgeable, and imaginative people working in teams of physicians,
scientists, engineers, and even business folk to monitor, restore and
enhance normal body function. The biomedical engineer is ideally
trained to work at the intersection of science, medicine and mathematics
to solve biological and medical problems.
