This talk will focus on two aspects of ongoing biomedical engineering research into diagnostic sensing that seeks to 'listen' and 'feel' (palpating) structures (i.e. human organs) to assess their condition. The speaker will describe the underlying research in materials engineering and medical device manufacture before presenting two examples of near-commercial applications of (1) acoustic emission sensing and (2) dynamic instrumented palpation.
