Welcome to the home page of
22485 Medical Imaging Systems
On this home page you can find information about the course and you
can download both the course plan for the autumn 2024, the data for
the different exercises and assignments, and various programs used for
demonstrations during the lectures.
The lectures will take place in Module E2, Monday kl. 13.00 - 14.30
in building 341, auditorium 23 and Thursday kl. 9.00 - 11.00, in building 308, auditorium 11. The exercises are performed
in the E data bar in building 341, ground floor, room 015.
Aim: The purpose of the course is to give a thorough
introduction to all modern diagnostic imaging systems.
This includes the primary systems as X-ray, computer
tomography (CT), ultrasound, and magnetic resonance (MR)
as well as PET, PET/CT, and SPECT.
Both the physics behind the imaging will be taught, as well as
the signal processing performed in the systems. A number
of computer exercises must be made during the
course.
|
A number of international leading experts in
medical imaging will also give guest lectures, and the
course includes visit to radiology departments along
with demonstrations.
The grading in the course is based on two projects about
CT reconstruction and ultrasound and an oral exam. For both a
report must be made and handed in during the course. The
reports, exercises, and reading material are discussed during
the oral exam.
