The home faculty only

The graduate of the course is capable of:
- recommending and critically evaluating suitability of individual methods of medical image analysis to a particular purpose, based on theoretical and practical knowledge gained in the course,
- implementing these methods on a suitable software platform, possibly with commercial software,
- being a valid member of a research / experimental interdisciplinary team in the area of biomedical image data.

The generic knowledge on the Bachelor´s degree level is requested, namely in the area of mathematics and signal processing.

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations. Techning methods include lectures and computer laboratories. Course is taking advantage of e-learning (Moodle) system. Students have to write a project/assignment during the course.

Requirements for completion of a course are elaborated by the lecturer responsible for the course every year;
basically:
- obtaining at least 15 points (out of 30 as course-unit credit based on active presence in demonstration exercises),
- successful passing of final written exam (up to 70 points, min. 35 points)

The goal of the course is to enable the students gaining an overview of, and insight into, the methods of medical image analysis; acquiring practical experience in software realisation of the methods.

Delimitation of controlled teaching and its procedures are specified by a regulation issued by the lecturer responsible for the course and updated for every year (see Rozvrhové jednotky).
Basically:
- obligatory computer-lab tutorial
- voluntary lecture
