Course description:
Over the past decades, we have seen huge improvements in medical imaging technology. S ystematic evaluation of the quality and reproducibility of new imaging techniques is crucial to allow large scale implementation. This one week interactive course will focus on the many aspects of imaging evaluation, including technical development, visual assessment and optimisation of image quality, and intra and inter observer reproducibility. At the end of the week, students will be able to design, analyse and report imaging evaluation and reproducibility studies according to international guidelines.
