Biomedical engineering education and technology transfer.
The author examines the role of a biomedical engineering educator in the technology transfer in health care delivery. He identifies the problem as lack of proper communication between the physician and the engineer and suggests ways to remedy it. He discusses the role that the biomedical engineering educator can play in enhancing the acceptability of technological. He concludes that technology transfer will proceed as the normal course of events only when the biomedical engineer establishes him/herself as a part of the health care delivery team.
