Medical Imaging Fundamentals
Midterm Exam
Course Introduction
Medical Imaging Fundamentals offers a comprehensive introduction to the principles, techniques, and applications of medical imaging technologies used in modern healthcare. The course explores the physics and instrumentation behind key modalities such as X-ray, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, and nuclear medicine. Emphasis is placed on understanding image formation, image quality, contrast mechanisms, and safety considerations. Students will also gain insight into image analysis, digital processing, and the clinical context in which medical imaging is employed for diagnosis and treatment. The course balances theoretical foundations with practical examples, preparing students for further study or careers in biomedical engineering, radiology, or related fields.
