Center for Biomedical Device and Sensors (CBIS)

CENTER OF BIOMEDICAL IMAGING AND SENSORS (CBIS)

ABOUT US

Center of Biomedical Imaging and Sensors (CBIS) is a center in multi-disciplinary research area that involved several engineering fields. It revolves around the application of engineering science and technology to the medical field. These applications are used to support the medical and biological science areas in improving healthcare, diagnosis, rehabilitation and treatment. In modern society today, the concern about healthcare is increasing, and people are getting more aware of the benefits of new technologies. The main research of this program is focusing on the understanding, development and application of instrumentation, physiological measurements, signal, sensors and image analysis as well as understanding and learning the medical problems in order to facilitate the prognosis, diagnosis, rehabilitation and treatment of patients. Globally, biomedical, imaging and sensors have become an important field of study to many world class universities, and in Malaysia, a few universities have established their biomedical engineering faculties to cope with the latest research trend by applying image analysis and sensors. It is now time for UPM to promote our CBIS because we have the strengths, e.g. having our own medical faculty, a lot of equipment and having excellent international and local linkages. Eventually, benefits of new findings in this research center and its development will contributes toward university’s and the nation’s inspirations.
