Biomedical imaging refers to the use of various techniques to create detailed images of the body or its individual parts, which can be used to diagnose and guide treatment of a wide range of medical conditions. Biomedical engineers help make sense of the images by developing and advancing image analysis techniques. This module provides an introduction to biomedical imaging, covering the fundamental concepts and techniques used in biomedical imaging, and their applications in diagnosing and treating various medical conditions. It will further disseminate critical parameters to assess image quality, functions for image registration, enhancement, segmentation, and quantification, as well as statistical and machine learning techniques in image analysis. Finally, clinical interpretation skills will be developed.
