MEDPH 462 - Theory of Medical Imaging
3 units (fi 6)(FIRST, 3-0-0)
A system theory approach to the production, analysis, processing and reconstruction of medical images. An extensive use of Fourier techniques is used to describe the processes involved with conventional radiographic detectors, digital and computed radiography. Review and application of image processing techniques used in diagnostic and therapeutic medicine. Restricted to undergraduate students in the Honors Physics degree. Credit can be obtained in at most one of MEDPH 462 and ONCOL 562. Prerequisites: Consent of the Department and MA PH 351 or MATH 311 and MATH 337.

MEDPH 468 - Physics of Diagnostic Radiology
3 units (fi 6)(SECOND, 3-0-0)
Rigorous development of the physics of x-ray production, interaction and detection in diagnostic radiology, including mammography and ultrasound. In-depth analysis of analog and digital systems in radiography and fluoroscopy is given. The description and design of computed tomographic systems as well as the associated reconstruction algorithms from single to multislice helical systems are studied. Restricted to undergraduate students in the Honors Physics degree. Credit can be obtained in at most one of MEDPH 486 and ONCOL 568. Prerequisites: MEDPH 450, MEDPH 462, and consent of department.
