Engineering for Health
Welcome to the Institute of Biomedical Engineering (IBT) at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). For more than 60 years we have been active in research and teaching in the field of biomedical engineering.
In interdisciplinary projects together with medical doctors and medical industry, we investigate new technical systems that help to diagnose diseases earlier and more accurately as well as systems that make therapies more successful.
Optical Imaging for intraoperative navigation and diagnosis – providing structural and functional information
Lead: Werner Nahm
Planning, personalization and monitoring of medical treatments
Lead: Maria Francesca Spadea
Mathematical simulations for optimizing cardiovascular prevention, diagnosis, and treatment
Lead: Axel Loewe
From September 9 to 11, the Tri-National Conference on Biomedical Engineering (BMT) took place in Basel. This event brought together scientists from all areas of medical technology. Carola gave a presentation on the effects of left bundle branch block in an electromechanical heart model and won the student competition, while Julian presented a poster on his current research (influence of risk factors for postoperative atrial fibrillation).
This new paper presents a clinical consensus statement of the European Heart Rhythm Association and the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging of the ESC on the standardized regionalization of the atria, with a significant contribution from CaMo IBT.
