Average Course Rating

(-1)

This course provides students with an intermediate-level understanding of the physics, engineering, algorithms, and applications (clinical, pre-clinical, and industrial) of x-ray imaging and computed tomography (CT). Topics include the physics of x-ray interaction and detection, engineering principles of CT system design and operation, 3D image reconstruction using analytical and optimization-based algorithms, image quality and patient dose, and recent advances in CT technology. The students conduct computational projects involving simulation, processing, and reconstruction of x-ray data. There are also several group discussion assignments requiring independent exploration of scientific literature. Recommended background: Engineering Physics, Signals and Systems, or equivalent courses, and familiarity with Matlab.
