Medical Imaging Systems 1

The course is a substitute for:

Medical Image Processing (A6M33ZMO)

Lecturer:

Ondřej Drbohlav, Václav Hlaváč

Tutor:

Lukáš Cerman, Ondřej Drbohlav, Václav Hlaváč, David Hurych, Jan Mačák

Supervisor:

Department of Cybernetics

Synopsis:

Image processing techniques for medical imaging.

Image formation and acquisition,

preprocessing, compression, edge and object detection. Applications in computer vision and medical image processing.

In 2009, most of the lectures and excercises will be common with the Digital Image Processing course http://www.feld.cvut.cz/cz/education/bk/predmety/12/58/p12587104.html
