AI in Medical Imaging

Catalog description

AI in medical imaging is experiencing tremendous growth all over the world. Biomedical imaging and its analysis are fundamental to understanding, visualizing, and quantifying medical images in clinical applications. With the help of automated and quantitative image analysis techniques, disease diagnosis will be easier/faster, and more accurate, leading to significant development in medicine in general. This course aims to help students develop skills in artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques applied to biomedical image analysis. With an emphasis on the machine/deep learning approach, students will learn: 1) Fundamentals of radiological image modalities and their clinical use 2) Introduction to Medical Image Computing and Machine Learning 3) Medical Image Registration, Segmentation, Visualization 4) Machine Learning/Deep Learning Prediction of Disease and Staging. The course includes significant hands-on processing. Students will enhance their AI, medical image analysis, and programming skills. They will solve realistic biomedical imaging problems in interesting computer projects. Offered as CSDS 466 and EBME 463 .
