MRI acquisition and analysis course 2010

Course title: Magnetic Resonance Imaging Techniques and Analysis

Content and format: The course covers introductory MRI acquisition and image processing methods. Analysis of functional imaging data will be covered in detail. The first half of the course is mainly lectures on MR-basics. It also includes data acquisition for the remaining part of the course that is focused on hands-on data analysis.

The course starts at a level requiring little or no MR experience. A technical background is not required. The target audience is employees and students at the MR department but the course is open and free for external participants.

DRCMR employees, students, new-comers and co-workers are given priority if we (against expectations) have to limit the number of participants due to space limitations.

The course covers the basics  needed to follow the somewhat more technical course Medical Magnetic Resonance Imaging offered as part of the Medicine&Technology program at the Technical University of Denmark in the spring, and which is also available for non-DTU-students under "Open University".

Dates and time: Starting September 21st 2010, the course is given Tuesdays 14:00-16:00 in the conference room of the MR-department at Hvidovre Hospital (dept. 340).

Registration: Please register below.

Literature and software: Course notes and relevant articles are provided during the course. Before the first lecture, it is recommended to install the software freely available at http://www.drcmr.dk/bloch as this will play an important role in the acquisition part of the course (access to the software is not needed during lectures). The same applies to the SPM software available at http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/ which will be used during the analysis part. The latter software package requires a working installation of Matlab as described on the SPM home page.

Credit: The course has a workload corresponding to 2-5 ECTS points depending on exams/assignments taken (2 is 1/15 semester workload) but you do not automatically get credit for the course in any educational institution. You may apply for credit at your school, but be aware that no general evaluation is planned, which may be required for a credit bearing course. This can possibly be arranged on an individual basis upon request, and is required for the organizers to recommend more than 2 ECTS.

Language: The course is given in English, or in Danish if all participants are Danish speaking.

Lecturers: The acquisition part is coordinated by Lars G. Hanson , and the analysis part by Arnold Skimminge. Lectures are by the organizers, Lise Vejby Søgaard and Kristoffer H. Madsen.
