(1) To understand globally the various image processing operations
currently available for handling the immense amount of data that are
being generated in Radiology. (2) To learn the basic principles
underlying these operations. (3) To understand the strengths and
weaknesses of these operations in the context of radiological practice.
The aim of this course is to give an overview of the methods,
techniques, and their applications currently available for the
processing, analysis, and visualization of the three-dimensional image
volumes encountered in radiology. The first of this two-part course
will describe in a systematic manner the basic principles underlying the
various image processing operations including interpolation, filtering,
registration, segmentation, rendering methods, object structure
manipulation, and structure quantification and analysis. Emphasis will
be given to an intuitive but scientifically rigorous way of
understanding the basic principles underlying these operations.
