Medical Image Processing for Diagnostic Applications E-learning has developed to an important tool in adult
education. The requirements of more different learners'
types can be met, and the modern lifestyle of students
demands a flexible and accessible way of presenting
educational material.
Online courses are built for this purpose. While the vhb
already provides courses in a lot of subjects, the field
of medical imaging is not yet present. The aim of this project is to develop a complete international online
course teaching fundamental methods required to start
research in medical image processing. In three main
chapters about preprocessing, medical image
reconstruction and rigid registration methods in 2D and
3D, the student will learn theoretic backgrounds, train
mathematical concepts, and implement important
algorithms. Thereby, the course contents are always
motivated by diagnostic applications in use.
Among other things, the course features lecture videos
and online testing of exercise submissions. In the final
stage, this course will be added to the vhb portfolio as
an ECTS credited course. | Project manager: Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Andreas Maier
