Introduction to Medical Image Analysis

Course Content

Now more than ever, biomedical images become crucial in many biomedical and diagnostic applications. Gaining that specialized knowledge demands a course like “Introduction to Medical Image Analysis” which introduces the fundamental of computerized medical image analysis and medical imaging. This course is composed of two parts, lectures and seminars. In the lecture part, we will give 8 lectures based on the textbook authored by Atam Dhawan. The lecture topics which are listed in the timetable cover medical imaging modalities, image reconstruction, computerized image processing, visualization, and recent breakthroughs in medical imaging analysis. In the seminar part, one or two papers will be assigned to each participating student who will present and discuss the paper in the course hours. One program assignment will also be a part of the course work. After spending six lectures on analyzing medical images, the assignment will help the students to gain some real experiences in handling medical images.
