Diagnostic Radiological Physics II

Long Description (Course Description)

A comprehensive analysis of computed tomography (CT) and ultrasound (US) medical imaging systems. Fundamentals of these diagnostic imaging modalities, such as basic physics, image reconstruction, and associated bio-effects, will be discussed. Multiple lab demos will help illustrate the physics that go into creating these images: students will observe residents performing CT studies on multiple phantoms and then be tasked with identifying image quality changes due to different acquisition technique.
