Required Knowledge
University: At least two years of univerity studies with Multivariable Calculus (5MA010, 7,5 hp), Linear Algebra (5MA019, 7.5 hp), Mathematical Methods of Physics (5MA014, 15 hp), Statistics for Engineering Physicists (5MS007, 6 hp), Quantum Physics (5FY118, 4,5 hp), Introductory programming in C and Matlab (5DV104, 7,5 hp), and Project Management I (5BY008, 7,5 hp) , or corresponding. It is an advantage, but not a demand, to have studied Introductory Course in Medicine (5RA001, 5 hp), and Biomedical Engineering (5RA005, 10 hp) or Atomic and Nuclear Physics (5RA000, 7,5 hp).Proficiency in English equivalent to Swedish upper secondary course English A (IELTS (Academic) with a minimum overall score of 5.5 and no individual score below 5.0. TOEFL PBT (Paper-based Test) with a minimum total score of 530 and a minimum TWE score of 4.

Form of instruction
The project and the project model to be used are presented by a purchaser with clinical association. A project organization is formed and the students will conduct a feasibility study in which they will build a toolbox in Matlab which includes: filter in image and frequency domain, segmentation, matrix-based geometric operations, resampling of images, and interface to image viewing tools. With the help of the toolbox test, data is created. The feasibility study is to acquire knowledge of the imaging technique.Reports of partial results are done by weekly oral status reports to the purchaser. In addition, the feasibility study, the preliminary interim report and the final report is reported on in written where each chapter has an author list. The final report is also presented orally.
