SUMMARY:Inside Out: How Physics Has Revolutionized Medical Imaging
DESCRIPTION:<p>This talk covers the physics behind methods in modern 3-D medical imaging and the basic approach they all share.&nbsp; The signals we can measure often bear no obvious resemblance to the objects we try to investigate.&nbsp; Physics connects the underlying object to the signals by a path that sometimes may be followed back to the object.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Finding the way back, i.e. solving the "inverse problem" reveals the object structure.&nbsp; We will discuss CT, MRI, and other popular methods as well as technologies recently developed at UIUC.</p>
