• Introduction to biomedical and medical imaging systems;
• Physical principles behind the design of selected imaging systems;
• Technological aspects of each modality;
• Spatial and temporal resolution;
• Importance of each modality concerning physical, biological and clinical applications.

The course introduces the 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 ionizing radiation, which has always been an important aspect of the application of physics to medicine. Applications and current developments will be presented. After having actively participated 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 – Non-Ionizing Radiation offered in the 2^nd semester and does not require previous participation of that course.
