In this modern age when population's health and life span is
continuously declining, works and positions related to medical industry
are thriving. People rely on doctors, nurses, therapists and medical
practitioners to take care of their health that mostly, they themselves
have neglected. In this scenario, an individual works silently behind
the scene but his role in medical world is of great importance as well.
He is the biomedical equipment technician (BMET). He is responsible in
the installation, inspection, calibration, modification, testing and
repair of highly technical medical equipments. Not anybody can work as
biomedical equipment technician because this position requires a 2-year
associate's degree in Biomedical Equipment Technology, Biomedical
Electronics Technology, or Biomedical Engineering Technology or about
one year in full-time military training.
