General
Aim
  • The aim with the course is to give a fundamental understanding and an experimental experience of ultrasound. The student is given an insight in an expanding research area. Another purpose is to prepare the students for diploma work and PhD-studies in electrical and biomedical engineering
Contents
  • Ultrasound physics, transducer technology, diagnostic equipment technology, doppler, bio-acoustics, field characterisation, airborne ultrasound, fetal examination, non destructive testing, sonar and research projects at the departmen
Knowledge and Understanding
  • For a passing grade the doctoral student must
  • have a satisfactory overview of technical ultrasound applications
    have extended knowledge in the basic principles in ultrasound physics
    have insight in basic ultrasonic technical principals and their implementation in advanced diagnostical systems
    have knowledge in the present frontier of research
Competences and Skills
  • For a passing grade the doctoral student must
  • be able to characterise an ultrasound transducer
    be able to experimentally perform and demonstrate basic physical effects or technical applications
