As part of its scientific activities aimed at integrating theoretical knowledge with innovative engineering applications, the Biomedical Engineering Department organized a specialized workshop entitled “Design and Implementation of an X-ray Simulator Project,” under the direct supervision of Assistant Lecturer Hiba Dhiaa Abdul-Amir. About the Workshop: The workshop aimed to introduce students to the physical and engineering principles of X-ray machine operation and the mechanism of radiographic image formation. The session focused on the practical aspect, demonstrating how to translate these complex concepts into a practical engineering project that safely simulates the basic functions of the device for educational purposes. Methodology: The workshop followed the Engineering Design Process (EDP), which included: • Reviewing the stages of model implementation, starting with planning and selecting the appropriate electronic and software components to ensure simulation accuracy. • Explaining the system's construction and operation using sensors, processing units, and display technologies to simulate the imaging process without the need for actual radiation. • Linking precise engineering aspects to real-world medical applications enabled students to understand the technical challenges of designing radiological devices and developing software solutions for them. The workshop fostered a spirit of innovation and teamwork among students and enhanced their ability to execute integrated engineering projects in the field of medical devices, thus supporting their professional readiness and academic progress. Objectives of the Scientific Activity: This activity aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals adopted by the university, including: • Goal 3 (Good Health and Well-being): by preparing engineering professionals capable of understanding and developing medical imaging technologies that contribute to accurate diagnosis. • Goal 4 (Quality Education): by providing an interactive learning environment based on Project-Based Learning to solidify scientific concepts. • Goal 9 (Industry and Innovation): by encouraging students to create engineering models and medical simulators that serve the manufacturing and medical training sectors.
