Prof. Boppart's Courses
-
ECE 280 - Biomedical Imaging Studies the fundamentals and applications of five medical imaging techniques: X-ray imaging and computed tomography, nuclear medicine, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, and optical imaging. In addition, introductory material on general image formation concepts and characteristics is presented , including human visual perception and psychophysics.
ECE 414 - Biomedical Instrumentation
Introduction to engineering aspects of the detection, acquisition, processing,
and display of information and signals from living systems. Topics discussed include biomedical
transducers and systems for measurement of biopotentials, force, pressures, blood flow, and
heart sounds, as well as instrumentation for cell type and surface marker identification. -
ECE 415 - Biomedical Instrumentation Lab Studies medical instrumentation and transducers for static and dynamic
inputs and measures actual biomedical signals
ECE 460 - Optical Imaging
Introduction to visible and infrared imaging systems covering fields, optical elements,
electronic sensors, and embedded processing systems. Lectures and labs cover active and passive
illumination, ranging, holography, polarization, coherence, spectroscopy and sampling with an
emphasis on electronic optomechanical control and data acquisition. -
ECE 498SB - Biophotonics The course content focuses on three blocks: 1) Biophotonics Principles, 2) Diagnostic Biophotonics, and 3) Therapeutic Biophotonics. Different imaging modalities, such as OCT, CARS, FRET, SHG/THG, confocal microscopy, MPM, nonlinear optics, as well as their clinical applications are introduced. In each lecture, students lead a brief discussion about a related journal article to provide additional information, which is not yet covered in the textbook. Individual studies are also possible for extra credit.
