About this course
Period (from – till ): 11 November 2024 - 27 January 2025 (BMS_P2_A). This course can be followed together with AI fopr Medical Imaging BMB4708022, the schedules do not overlap.
This course covers theory and practice of processing, analysing and visualising diffusion MRI data. Key concepts and practical considerations of data processing and analysis are explained. Topics include:
• Quality assessment
• Artifact correction
• Diffusion approaches
• Fiber tractography
• Automated analyses
• Visualisation methods
During computer practical sessions students will learn how to work with real diffusion MRI data.
