MRI II:
The lecture will provide theoretical background to understand advanced encoding and decoding strategies in MRI. Furthermore, biophysical properties and related quantitative MR-measurements will be introduced. Participants are expected to rehearse the content after class in preparation for exercises. The exercises focus on the calculation of practical questions and exercises at the computer. For this, matlab-code will be made available, which need to be modified. Homework will consist of specific tasks with calculations and programming solutions using matlab. The participants will attend a MR-measurement session.

Workload and Credit Points

The workload in total is 180 hours, this is equivalent to 6 LP (1LP for 30 hours of work).
 
Module completion

The module will be completed with Portfolio examination with 100 points in total which will be shared by homework, a written examination and an oral examination.

 
Requirements for participation and examination

Desirable prerequisites for participation in the courses:
Mathematical background at the level of MS students in Engineering (Fourier transforms, signals and systems, linear algebra and notions of matrix theory). Knowledge of basic Matlab functionality is helpful The course is open to students enrolled in any MSc in Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Physics
 
Registration Procedures
