Introduction to Biomedical Imaging

The course gives in-depth knowledge regarding biomedical imaging technologies and the information they give to medical professionals. The candidates will understand how these technologies are complementing each other. This course is taught by faculty at the University of Queensland and offered by edx.

These days imaging technologies are forming an important component of all developed economies' health budgets, the need for these advanced imaging technologies such as CT scans, MRIs, and X-rays during people’s lives is increasing. The course Introduction to Biomedical Imaging provides a basic understanding of modern imaging modalities and biomedical imaging. The course is self-paced for both the Audit and Verified Track chosen by the candidates. The basic difference between these 2 modes is that during the Audit mode, the candidates will get limited period access whereas in the Verified mode, the access is unlimited.

 It also talks about the basic scientific principles under each modality; and their key applications from cancers to neurological diseases. This course covers both general topics which are designed specifically for the general public and also covers advanced topics that would help the development of professionals in engineering, IT, and health industries.   

Through this course, the candidates will also learn the clinical applications and technology, and hardware used in computerised tomography, X-rays, PET and SPECT, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging. The candidates will have to take up quizzes which will help them learn the key points.

Nano @ Stanford

The Nano @ Stanford training provides rich materials for you to become productive users of the nano@stanford nano-characterisation and nanofabrication facilities and tools. These facilities include Stanford Nano Shared Facilities (SNSF), Environment Measurement Facility (EMF), Stanford Nanofabrication Facility (SNF) and Material Analysis Facility (MAF). 

The Nano @ Stanford online course teaches foundational principles, topics, concepts and in-depth operating processes for various equipment in the nanofabrication facilities. It also provides the essential processes and tools in SNSF and SNF, further offering training across multiple levels with diverse learning and instruction techniques. Since this training entails a short ten-week span and is self-directed, learners can comfortably partake in it.

Stanford University’s Stanford Online initiative has developed the Nano @ Stanford certification syllabus. The course curriculum will provide value to lab members and learners who seek comprehensive knowledge about characterisation and fabrication. Anyone, whether researchers or students, interested in nanofabrication can enrol and view the study materials to quench their thirst for knowledge. This self-paced programme can be taken by the learners either paying the fee or free. In the free mode, the candidates can get access only for a limited period.

Offered by

Certificate

Biomechanics of Joints and Orthopaedic Implants

Biomechanics is a branch of science that studies the physics of living systems. This Biomechanics of Joints and Orthopaedic Implants online course aids in understanding the link between human joint anatomy and function, predicting changes as a result of modifications, and proposing artificial intervention approaches. 

This Biomechanics of Joints and Orthopaedic Implants training is intended for B.Tech, M.Tech, and PhD students who would benefit from studying basic biomechanics principles, joint kinematics and kinetics, implant design and analysis, tissue mechanics and state-of-the-art modelling and simulation tools for biomechanical systems.

The Biomechanics of Joints and Orthopaedic Implants syllabus include biomechanics of the human joint and introduction to muscle, tendon, ligament, cartilage, shoulder, hip, elbow, knee, etc. The course also includes healing of bone fractures, joint replacement, joint kinematics principles, etc. Candidates can enrol in the course and study for free. However, if the candidate wants a certificate, they will have to first register and then take the proctored test at one of the approved exam centres. The test is optional and costs Rs 1000.

Fundamentals of Biomedical Imaging: Ultrasounds, X-ray, Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Applications

The Fundamentals of Biomedical Imaging training is a short-term programme of seven weeks, where you can study at your own pace. Moreover, it lies in the engineering domain, and the principles significantly contribute to biology and medicine. Also, this course is being offered by EPFL in collaboration with edX.

Additionally, the lessons’ video transcripts are also available to maximize the learning benefits. While you can undertake the programme at no cost, you will have to pay the required amount if you wish to get certified for it. Furthermore, this is an advanced-level programme that enhances your existing knowledge about biomedical imaging.

Fundamentals of Biomedical Imaging certification syllabus covers topics ranging from imaging techniques used to produce a biomedical image, imaging concepts, SNR, CNR, principles of ultrasound, X-ray, Positron Emission Tomography (PET), Computed Tomography (CT), Emission Tomography, SPECT, factors that limit the imaging quality to the description and the analysis of typical applications. Besides, this edX course has a self-directed training model but offers only limited access during the audit track and unlimited access to the course materials when the verified track is selected.

Fundamentals of Biomedical Imaging: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

The Certification course on Fundamentals of Biomedical Imaging: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Online Course is taught by Rolf Gruetter, Professor, EPFL. This physics course introduces the Vivo bio-imaging modalities and the candidate learns about the physical principles of major in the same, focusing on the magnetic resonance imaging, popularly called an MRI.

In the initial part of Fundamentals of Biomedical Imaging, professors diligently describe the dynamic of spins as well explained through a magnetic field. This explanation leads to significant notions of magnetic resonance (MR), relaxation, and excitation. Further in this stage, the basic mechanisms of functional MRI, image reconstruction and MR spectroscopy will be discussed.

The next stage of Fundamentals of Biomedical Imaging: Training establishes an important link to life sciences. This is shown by theoretical and practical examples which exemplify how physics contributes towards life sciences and by learning how the prevailing physical principles surpass bio-imaging. Further, the student will learn the practicality of respective imaging modalities, their premise, use, limitations, and biological safety. EdX offers two varied tracks to pursue the self-paced programme; verified and free audit. In the verified mode, the students will be provided with unlimited access to the course and a certificate. In the free mode, the candidates will be allowed to audit the course for a limited duration.
