Course Description

The course introduces students to the basic physics and instrumentation concepts of main biomedical imaging modalities such as X- Ray, Radiography, Computed Tomography, Ultrasound and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Student will learn the fundamental concept of radiation and image formation processes along with the safety issues of different imaging modalities. The focus of the course is a series of labs using PHYWE training units and Gate 4 simulation software and home works that will enable students to perform useful  biomedical imaging experiments that in turns not only will help them to understand the principle of imaging systems but also will familiarize them with basic parameters that matter most for clinical applications.
