BIOE 424

Credit: 3 OR 4 hours.

Students will gain a solid educational foundation in the principles and practice of preclinical molecular imaging such that students can build on their prior education, training, and experiences to drive the field in new directions and advance their professional goals. The course will focus on key areas of knowledge: imaging physics and instrumentation, molecular probes and contrast agents, molecular interactions, quantitative imaging and modeling, and translation to the clinical imaging of disease.

3 undergraduate hours. 4 graduate hours. Credit is not given toward graduation for BIOE 424 and either BIOE 498 WD or BIOE 598 WD. Prerequisite: BIOE 205 is recommended.
