Medical Imaging Systems II
In this course, you will use a systems viewpoint to study the concepts involved in imaging internal structures within the body. Learn to analyze magnetic resonance imaging systems, including: physics, Fourier properties of image formation, effects of system imperfections, image contrast, and noise. Master multidimensional signals and systems concepts, and gain an in-depth understanding of Fourier transforms. A lab tour is tentatively scheduled for instrumentation and selected topics.
This course will help you to answer fundamental questions of medical imaging, such as:
- What are the basic physics?
- How does one form an image and control its contrast?
- What are the main sources of noise, distortions, and artifacts?
- How is this technology used in clinical practice?
- What are the trends and areas of future study?
Topics Include
- Magnetic Resonance (MR)
- Basic physics
- 2D imaging principles
- Selective excitation (Fourier interpretations)
- Imaging considerations (system imperfections, image contrast, noise)
- Volumetric imaging, fast imaging, low imaging
