Course unit content
The course will primarily focus on deepening the skills in clinical imaging, providing students with a solid knowledge base ranging from the fundamental principles related to image acquisition using light, sound, force, and magnetic fields.
Additionally, students will have the opportunity to delve into the world of linear and nonlinear microscopy in detail. These advanced techniques will allow them to investigate objects and structures infinitely small, opening new perspectives for clinical studies. They will be able to understand the complex methods of visualization and analysis used in microscopy, including fluorescence, which reveals specific details within biological samples, and three-dimensional reconstruction, which provides a complete spatial representation of the subjects under examination.
In summary, this course will offer comprehensive and diverse training in the field of clinical imaging, preparing students for a wide range of applications and tools that will be essential for their future careers in the medical or biomedical research fields.
