Syllabus
A summary of the MSc in Medical Image Computing is available as a one page PDF file (better formatting) or a web page.
The following four modules are shared with current MScs in the
Department of Medical Physics
- Physics for Imaging and Therapy
- Computing and Statistics in Medicine
- Medical Imaging (Ionising)
- Medical Imaging (Non-Ionising)
The Foundations of Anatomy and
Scientific Computing module is composed of two courses. The
Scientific Computing course is new and will be shared with the Computer
Science MSc in Vision, Imaging and Virtual Environments. The Anatomy
course is provided specifically for the MScs in the Medical Physics
department.
The modules, Computer Assisted
Radiology, Information
Processing in Medical Imaging and Image Directed Analysis and Therapy
are all new for this MSc.
Research Project
A research project forms one third of the course. The project
will be undertaken either at UCL in one of the europe's largest Medical
Imaging research groupings, or at an industrial company.
Industrial companies are encouraged to contact us if they are
interested in providing research projects. There are tax incentives to
encourage research in UK SMEs and offering a project may qualify under
this scheme (see the Research
and Development Tax Credits web site).
Assessment
The four modules shared with Medical Physics will be
assessed by examination and the other modules by coursework. The
research project will be assessed by presentations and a written report.
There is a reading list relevant to the MSc on a CMIC
Wiki page.
