Course Name: Introduction to Biomedical Imaging Systems

Course abstract

This course attempts to provide an introduction to the different commonly-used medical imaging systems. Although there are several courses and textbooks available from medical physics background, there are only few materials that treat the subject from a system’s perspective, which is the view point taken here. This course will be thought at a level where the students from different engineering branches may find it useful. After the initial introduction and review modules, the different modalities can be taken as a stand-alone-module, and for each the physics, instrumentation, reconstruction and Image quality will be discussed.

Prof. Arun K. Thittai

Dr. Arun Kumar Thittai did his BE (Electronics and Communication Engineering) in India and proceeded to do MS and PhD (Electrical Engineering) in University of Houston, Texas, USA. He has been working in the area of biomedical imaging since 2004. Although his major research interest and work has been on ultrasound modality, he was involved and worked with collaborators to acquire MRI, PET, CT and Optical imaging of small animals for pre-clinical research during his post-doctoral fellowship stint at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas, USA. He has been offering this course routinely at IIT M since 2015 to students from different engineering departments.
