Description

The general purpose of the group is to investigate applications of engineering to medicine. Therefore, it is a multidisciplinary group made up mainly of engineers and doctors from different specialties. The main objectives are described below:

Development of methods of analysis of biomedical signals (electroencephalograms, cognitive tests applied by computer, magnetoencephalograms, electromyograms) to aid in the diagnosis of different types of pathologies: schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's and epilepsies.
Analysis of retinographic images for automatic detection of the characteristic pathologies of diabetic retinopathy: hard exudates, cottony exudates, hemorrhages and microaneurysms.
Development and implementation of Telemedicine services in Ophthalmology: Tele-Ophthalmology.
Rehabilitation technologies: development of help systems for the disabled or people with language and communication disorders. Extraction, processing and interpretation of biomedical signals for its application to the management of myoelectric prostheses, domotic elements, communication and augmentative capacities. Implanted systems and functional electrostimulation.
New sensors and experimental medical instrumentation.
Measurement of non-ionizing radiation and exposure. Biological effects.
