BIOM 806 - Engineering Tools for Designing Medical Devices

Cr Hrs: 3 (16-64-0)
GR

This course focuses on recent advances in medical device design and manufacturing technology, including bridging the gap between data obtained from medical diagnostic imaging, such as CT and MRI scans, and computer aided design and engineering methods (CAD and CAE), using laser scanning and 3D coordinate measurement machines to collect point cloud data for reverse engineering; 3D printing (rapid prototyping); and image processing and conversion of medical image data stacks (CAT scan, MRI, etc.) into 3D biomodels for CAD and CAE.
