Introduction to imaging systems; Physical principles behind the design of selected biomedical imaging systems, including magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound imaging; Technological aspects of each modality; Importance of each modality concerning physical, biological and clinical applications.

The course introduces physical principles, properties and technical concepts of imaging systems as they are applied today in medicine and physics. The focus is laid on the use and application of non-ionizing radiation, as utilized, e.g., with magnetic resonance imaging or ultrasound imaging. Applications and current developments will be presented. After active participation the students should demonstrate a critical understanding of the theoretical basis and technologies of these imaging systems and have acquired an appreciation of instrumentation and practical issues with different imaging systems. The course is independent of the course Biomedical Imaging – Ionizing Radiation offered in the 3^rd semester.
