This course forms a core component of the MC215 Master of Medical Physics program. It builds upon the fundamental concepts of the main imaging modalities studied in PHYS2135 - radiological, MR, ultrasound, and Nuclear Medicine imaging. The PHYS-2134 course is a face-to-face course with substantial practical components and students are expected to attend the classes. The course covers topics on medical image processing, image analysis, and image synthesis (e.g. 3D visualization, and rendering). Contemporary advancements in medical imaging technology have brought with them an increasing level of complexity from implementation through to applications and the need for quality assurance. Physicists working in the field require a comprehensive understanding of these advanced imaging technologies in order to appreciate capabilities and limitations, evaluate equipment performance and assess risk. This course provides candidates for the Master of Medical Physics with an understanding of advanced imaging systems and their integration across the fields of diagnostic radiology, nuclear medicine and radiotherapy. This will include study of time-resolved ("4-dimensional") imaging, image-guided radiotherapy, and hybrid-modality imaging (e.g. PET/CT) together with topics such as image registration and its integration into treatment facilities and protocols. Emerging medical imaging modalities such as Phase Contrast Imaging are also explored during the course. Students will use freely available software packages such as ImageJ/Fiji during practical classes. Where possible, we will make site visits to clinics/hospitals and other facilities to see advanced medical imaging modalities in daily use and to observe the role of the medical physicist and see how these advances improve patient healthcare. There will also be specialist lectures by external, imaging experts during the course.
