This course introduces several cutting-edge
imaging techniques used in science and medicine
and explores some of the physics underlying these
techniques. Concepts are explored through
lectures, readings, and hands-on, out-of-class
activities. Elementary concepts from fields of
physics including electromagnetism, optics, and
modern physics are used to explain microscopy,
endoscopy, ultrasound, CAT scans, and magnetic
resonance imaging.
