This paper presents definitions of the terms bioengineering, biomedical engineering and clinical engineering. These definitions lead to the conclusion that clinical engineers must be individuals with at least a four-year bachelor's degree in an engineering specialty who are also well versed in the design, modification and testing of medical instrumentation. Educational programs for clinical engineers in the 1990s must be based upon clear definitions of these professionals' roles. Clinical engineering education should include direct professional experience obtained through internship programs similar to the program described here.
本文给出了生物工程、生物医学工程和临床工程等术语的定义。这些定义得出的结论是，临床工程师必须是至少拥有工程专业四年制学士学位，并且精通医疗仪器设计、改装和测试的人员。20世纪90年代临床工程师的教育项目必须基于对这些专业人员角色的明确定义。临床工程教育应包括通过类似于本文所述的实习项目获得的直接专业经验。
