Prerequisites: Medical Imaging, Computer Programming
Lectures: 4:30-5:30 MWF Hardin Library Information Commons Conference Room
Office Hours: 9:00-10:00 T, 4:30-5:30 Th
Course Description:
Under the supervision of the instructor, you will select a project from a list of projects provided or propose one of that suites your interest. You may team up in pairs or work by yourself. Your project will involve either the development of an application or a piece of hardware for use in the field of medical imaging. You will be expected to devote 12-15 hours a week towards the development of the tool. Your project will consist of four parts 1) Initial proposal, 2) UML Design, 3) Documentation, and 4) Final Presentation and Writeup.
Course Objectives:
The goal is to guide you through the real world development of an medical imaging tool in either software or hardware. This will provide students with an opportunity to be involved in all phases of the design and development process.
By the end of the Course students will have:
An understanding of software/hardware design, analysis and development process.
An understanding of the large number of Open source packages available to build from and how to evaluate their ability to build on top of these tools.
A background in research methodology.
Gained experience with performing research under a supervision of a faculty member.
