The potential for using advanced technologies to treat the most problematic, persistent diseases humans face shows great potential in improving the quality of life globally. This is especially true in nations that have high birth rates and not enough medical facilities for the entire population, as is the case in many nations in Asia. The rapid growth of biomedical engineering and its many facets from clinical engineering, genetic engineering, medical devices, neural engineering and medical imaging taken together contribute to a 57% growth rate in patent development annually in the United States alone and nearly a $75B industry annually, growing at 27% a year (Pretorius, Winzker, 2011). In addition these technologies are contributing to higher levels of accuracy in diagnosing and treating diseases.
