Students noted that the course offers a good overview of medical imaging systems and that the professor was very organized. Some students found the weekly quizzes overwhelming and felt that the course moved too fast. Suggestions for improvement included going over more examples in-class or having more practice problems to prepare for the exams. Students should expect a math-intensive course with a heavy workload. Students recommend reading the textbook and said having some background in signals and systems is helpful.

Students thought that this course gave them a broad overview of medical imaging systems. They believed that the instructor taught the materials clearly and found the course challenging but informative. Students found the workload to be overbearing at times, and that the curve was harsh. Students also believed that there were too many quizzes and suggested having fewer over the week. Students also suggested changing the curve and slowing down to cover fewer topics in more depth. Prospective students should be aware that this course requires a lot of work outside of the class. It is imperative that they have a background in signals and systems as well as math like calculus and geometry.

Students praised this course for teaching useful and interesting material and for having a knowledgeable professor. Students almost universal y found the course was chal enging and had too much work, with 119one student describing it as the hardest course they had taken at Johns Hopkins University. Suggestions for improvement included a desire by multiple students that the course’s assigned reading and homework be reduced and a desire by some students that the course be supplemented by a second class section or a discussion section. Prospective students should know that students found that the course had a heavy workload and gave a good foundation in common imaging modalities.
