Medical Imaging: Techniques and Clinical Applications

3rd - 4th April, 2015

Organised by

Centre for Biomedical Engineering

Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IITD)

About IIT Delhi

The Indian Institute of Technology Delhi is known for Centre of Excellence for higher education, training, research and development in Science, Engineering, Technology and Management in India. The Institute emphasizes on research based educational and academic deliverables which have high industrial and societal impact.


About CBME

Centre for Biomedical Engineering (CBME) was established in 1971 as a Joint venture of Indian Institute of Technology Delhi and All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Delhi. The Centre has applied engineering principles to address medical and biological problems. Over the years the Centre has performed successfully in the domain of health care technologies.

This year for the first time CBME is going to conduct an educational program on Medical Imaging - Techniques and clinical Applications followed by a workshop. The teaching program is designed to acquire comprehensive knowledge and strengthen skills in current state-of-art research in medical imaging from both clinical and technical domains.


Scope of the course

Medical imaging is a non-invasive technique for imaging internal organs/tissue of a body. A number medical imaging techniques perticularly, X-rays, CT, MRI and Ultrasound, are in clinical use for diagnosis of disease as well as monitering of treatement responses.

Depending upon the type of medical imaging technique, it can be used to obtain morphological or functional information of tissue.

Scope of the course and workshop is to teach medical imaging, covering only CT and MRI in this two days course, from basic principles to clinical applications, including advanced imaging techniques and understanding of the limitations of these techniques.



Learning Objective

1. Principles, physics and instrumentation of medical imaging (CT and MRI)
2. Image reconstruction and post-processing
3. Clinical application and future research scope in medical imaging
