Medicine and Engineering “Engineering is Supportive to Medical Instruments and Software”

The main theme of this chapter is to supplement medical examinations with biomedical means, which is only possible with mutual collaboration between doctors and engineers. The principles of science and technology-based tools are explained by engineering design concepts and software possibilities, which are supportive aids for medical diagnosis. Various sections of this chapter provide a linguistic explanation of the engineering related medical issues followed by a logical explanation of mathematical expression derivations through various models based on a set of assumptions. In the explanations, bivalent and fuzzy logic principles are used according to the problem at hand. Population growth, food sharing, injection, diabetics, dialysis, epidemics, sensitive hearing intake, blood circulation, etc. problems are modeled using a set of convenient mathematical methodologies. Human engineering concepts are discussed from the medical point of view. Finally, a set of recommendations are given for possible future directions to arrive at better innovation.
