Essays on Biomedical Engineering

Growing up, I always had the desire of becoming a doctor. But, during my undergraduate application in 2010 to Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST), I got introduces to the Medical Laboratory profession. I found out that it’s not a very well – known...

This work targets to enhance the low contrast of the medical images to avoid the risk of the diagnosis process. Check whether the extracted image is clear or distorted. If it is distorted, apply median filter to reduce the noise and to detect the edge,...

Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) is a noninvasive diagnostic imaging procedure that has been increasingly utilized in many oncologic applications. Patients undergoing PET/CT are injected with a radiotracer, which accumulates in certain normal and abnormal structures. Currently, the glucose analogue [18F] Fluoro-2-deoxy-2-D-glucose or [18F-FDG] is...

Nano based technologies if utilized as a bit in the medicinal field can change the specificity and adequacy of present arrangements and besides engage better health tools. As productive infrastructures relating heath are in the not too distant past incapacitated in developing nations, the presentation...

The human body is an intricate machine; with each cell doing its job perfectly. However, when faults arise they are difficult to overcome. Growing up I was always surrounded by a medical environment. My parents who worked in hospitals told me about their days. I...

I am writing this letter with a strong will to apply for the PhD position in UMC university. The reasons that motivated me to choose this program is, due to both the educational quality of Dutch institutions and the cultural aspects of The Netherlands. In...

Ava Jones is a four-year old girl who is in severe renal failure. Severe renal failure results in the gradual decrease of the kidney’s functioning, and leads to the inability to filter waste from the blood (Johns, 2018). Ava’s physician has noticed that her ability...

Abstract In the field of biomedical engineering Multichannel neural recording is one of the most important topics. Without degrading the quality the large amount of data is to be easily transfer through wireless transmission. For neural data reduction there are so many techniques that follow...

Electrochemical Detection Most of The tumors have markers in blood and serum which can be monitored [65,66]. An electrochemical immunosensor is special device applied for tracking of some diseases, in which a sandwich immunoreaction is commonly applied on an electrode surface (see Figure 6), such...

The Lung Image Database Consortium (LIDC) and Image Database Resource Initiative (IDRI) provides the largest set of computer tomography (CT) image references of lung nodules. The LIDC data set characterizes itself based on the following attributes. Calcification Internal structure Lobulation Malignancy Margin Sphericity Spiculation Subtlety...

Statins are the most effective and commonly used drug for treatment of hypercholesterolemia (Toth et al., 2018). Statin associated myopathy includes a broad spectrum of conditions that range from benign myalgia to more serious inflammation, and rarely may lead to life threatening rhabdomyolysis (Hilton-Jones, 2018)....

For thousands and thousands of years, approximately 10,500, humans have been selectively breeding animals. This process works by picking the most favorable member of a species and allowing it to breed, passing on its genes, which over time causes these genes or features to be...

Synthesis of nanoceria (CNPs) 1.48 g of cerium nitrate hexa-hydrate (99.999%) was added to 60 mL of distilled water while stirring for 30 min. After that, 6 mL of 30% NH4OH solution was added and the remedy was constantly stirred for 4 h. Pursuing this,...

The size of primary particle of NDs obtained by the detonation technique is well suited for biomedical studies, the detonation products required to be extensively purified. Depending on the materials and matrices present during their production, detonation NDs can contain oxides and carbides, including those...

There are some studies showed that Polysorbate 80 has been linked to infertility in mice, an increased risk of blood clots, heart attack, stroke, heart failure and even the recurrence of cancer. This additive was indicated by a article in PubMed as a causative agent...

A multisource drug product is a drug product that contains the same active drug substance in the same dosage form and is marketed by more than one pharmaceutical manufacturer. Single-source drug products are drug products for which the patent has not yet expired or has...
