Objectives of the Course The aim of this course is to provide fundamental knowledge of medical imaging systems, teach their operating principles, explain how medical images are generated, and develop the ability to compare the advantages and disadvantages of each imaging modality.
Course Content - Categorizing biomedical polymers
- Understanding biodegradation and biocompatibility
- Learning purification and characterization methods
- Examining different applications
Course Methods and Techniques The course is based on a student-centered approach that incorporates in-class activities, group work, homework assignments, mini projects, and technical trips. Various interactive methods such as discussions, peer collaboration, and hands-on applications will be employed. The teaching methodology also includes individual presentations and integration of technology-enhanced learning tools to support critical thinking and practical understanding.
