Fundamentals of
medical imaging physics and systems: X-ray radiography, ultrasound,
radionuclide imaging, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Biological
effects of each modality. Tomographical reconstruction principles,
including X-ray computed tomography (CT), position emission tomography
(PET), and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).
