Content and learning outcomes

Course contents

The course is divided into two modules:

  • Postprocessing methods for reducing artifacts in MRI
  • Methods for group comparisons

Intended learning outcomes

After successful completion of the course the students should be able to

  • describe the most common image artifacts associated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and how they can be reduced/avoided during postprocessing.
  • describe the most common postprocessing steps used for advanced MRI pulse sequences.

In order to:

  • select the most appropriate postprocessing pipeline for specific applications.
  • have a broad knowledge base that can ease understanding literature in the field.
