Biomedical engineering is a discipline concerned with the development and manufacture of prostheses, medical devices, diagnostic devices, drugs and other therapies. It is a field that combines the expertise of engineering with medical needs for the progress of health care. It is more concerned with biological, safety and regulatory issues than other forms of engineering. It may be defined as "The application of engineering principles and techniques to the medical field".

Biomedical Engineering blends traditional engineering techniques with biological sciences and medicine to improve the quality of human health and life. The discipline focuses both on understanding complex living systems - via experimental and analytical techniques - and on development of devices, methods and algorithms that advance medical and biological knowledge while improving the effectiveness and delivery of clinical medicine.

as the word implies, bio-medical engineering involves applying engineering skill and design to biological and medicinal systems
i worked for a bio-medical engineer when i was in college
he was developing heart-lung by-pass machines (they take the place of a patients heart and lungs, pumping and aerating, during certain cardio-vascular operations) with emphasis on materials of construction
some bio-medical engineers work on prosthetic devices
others develop surgican instruments and techniques
with the huge amount of money spent on medical treatment today, this is a big field
