MEDICAL IMAGING

Course Description: Medical Imaging

Medical Imaging is an interdisciplinary course that introduces students to the fundamental principles, technologies, and clinical applications of modern diagnostic imaging systems. The course explores how images of the human body are acquired, processed, interpreted, and utilized in medical decision-making.

Students will study the physical foundations of major imaging modalities, including X-ray radiography, Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Ultrasound, and Nuclear Medicine (PET and SPECT). Emphasis is placed on image formation principles, instrumentation, contrast mechanisms, image reconstruction, resolution, artifacts, and safety considerations.

In addition to technical foundations, the course examines clinical applications across major organ systems, radiation protection standards, quality assurance, and emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence in medical image analysis.

This course integrates concepts from physics, biology, anatomy, signal processing, and biomedical engineering to provide a comprehensive understanding of how medical imaging supports diagnosis, treatment planning, and research in modern healthcare.
