	Biomedical engineering - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Traditionally, biomedical engineering has been an interdisciplinary field to specialize in after completing an undergraduate degree in a more traditional discipline of engineering or science, the reason for this being the requirement for biomedical engineers to be equally knowledgable in engineering and the biological sciences.
		Clinical engineering is a branch of biomedical engineering for professionals responsible for the management of medical equipment in a hospital.
		The tasks of a clinical engineer are typically the acquisition and management of medical device inventory, supervising biomedical engineering technicians (BMETs), ensuring that safety and regulatory issues are taken into consideration and serving as a technological consultant for any issues in a hospital where medical devices are concerned.
