What is the biomedical engineering field like? Does it stand out from other fields in engineering? What types of engineering are used in this field? Who would you suggest pursue this field?

I know the medical industry has a good pay in comparison to other occupations of interest, so that is one reason why I’m asking about this. I don’t know much about the field, and I’m curious to know more.
