Abstract

Medical imaging technology is an important course in biomedical engineering. It is a multidisciplinary field integrating advanced technologies from physics, electronic engineering, computer science, engineering mathematics, material science, and fine processing. This course lays the foundation for the implementation of imaging diagnostics essential for medical automation. It enables participants to systematically grasp the fundamental knowledge in medical imaging principles, equipment, and system analysis, as well as to understand the direction of the latest developments in this field. This paper discusses the basic principles and performance of various basic imaging devices, such as X-ray imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear medicine imaging, and ultrasound imaging. In addition, it explores the systems involved and the future prospects of medical imaging technology.
