Medical imaging technologies from a biomedical engineering perspective. The physics, mathematics, instrumentation and clinical applications of all common medical imaging modalities, including x-ray radiography, computed tomography (CT), ultrasound imaging, positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are discussed. Emerging imaging modalities, including optical imaging, fluorescence imaging and photoacoustic imaging are also introduced.
