InhaltImaging and computing methods are key to advances and innovation in medicine. This course introduces established fundamental as well as modern techniques and methods of imaging and computing in medicine. For the imaging portion of the course, biosignal processing, radiation imaging, radiographic imaging systems, computed tomography imaging, diagnostic ultrasound imaging, and magnetic resonance imaging are covered. For the computing portion of the course, computing, programming, and modelling and simulation fundamentals are covered as well as their application in artificial intelligence and deep learning; complexity and systems medicine; big data and personalised medicine; and computational physiology and in silico medicine.
The course is structured as a seminar in three parts of 45 minutes with video lectures and a flipped classroom setup: in the first part (TORQUEs: Tiny, Open-with-Restrictions courses focused on QUality and Effectiveness), students study the basic concepts in short video lectures on the online learning platform Moodle. At the end of this first part, students must post a number of questions in the Moodle forum that will be addressed in the second part of the lectures using a flipped classroom concept. First, the lecturers may prepare additional teaching material to answer the posted questions and potentially discuss further questions (Q&A). Second, the students will form small groups to acquire additional knowledge online or from additionally distributed material and to present their findings to the rest of the class.
