Introduction to Biomedical Engineering
by John D. Enderle, Susan M. Blanchard, Joseph D. Bronzino · John Enderle, Joseph Bronzino
Undergraduate textbook covering the major biomedical engineering subfields: biomechanics, biomaterials, bioinstrumentation, biosignal processing, imaging, and biotransport. Worked problems and MATLAB examples let readers model physiological systems and judge which specialization fits their background.

IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
The IEEE society for biomedical engineering, publishing journals such as Transactions on Biomedical Engineering and running conferences like EMBC. Use it to track current research, technical standards, and career and student-chapter activity in the field.
Biomedical Engineering: Bridging Medicine and Technology
Cambridge textbook organizing the field around physiology first: cells, tissues, and organ systems, then the engineering applied to them: biomaterials, drug delivery, artificial organs, and imaging. Readers gain the quantitative vocabulary needed for graduate biomedical coursework.
Medical Instrumentation: Application and Design
Reference text on the design of medical instruments: sensors, amplifiers, and signal conditioning for measuring pressure, flow, blood chemistry, and bioelectric potentials. Readers learn to analyze instrument accuracy, noise, and safety constraints, and to specify clinical measurement systems.
