MS in BioMedical Engineering or Prosthetics/Orthotics

Hello everyone,
I am currently an electrical engineering student and am trying to decide what type of degree to pursue after I graduate. I am interested in working with and developing prosthesis; specifically artificial hands. I am wondering what would suit me better, a MS in biomedical engineering or a MS in Prosthetic/Orthotics? I would like to interact with patients on some level, but I am also interested in the design and construction of the prosthesis themselves. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

BTW I am sorry if this is posted in the wrong place (first time)

    You can do MS in Bioengineering Innovation and Design in one of the american universities . You will have entire knowledge of designing prosthesis etc .Thats all I know about it . Let me refer you a link for your further information , #-Link-Snipped-# . You may also see the top ten colleges for biomedical engineering in US .
