    ES97D is taught jointly with ES3H5
    ES3H5 LEARNING OUTCOMES
    By the end of the module you should be able to...

    1. Illustrate how the underlying physics principles apply to modern medical imaging and
    sensing.
    2. Compare and contrast the primary methods in clinical practice for investigation of the
    human body and brain.
    3. Perform quantitative and qualitative assessments related to the theoretical and practical
    constraints on imaging and sensing technologies
    4. Analyse key applications of medical imaging and sensing for supporting diagnostics,
    surgery, and therapy
    5. Communicate effectively on complex engineering matters.
    ES97D LEARNING OUTCOMES
    By the end of the module you should be able to...

    1. Demonstrate a sound understanding of the complex underlying principles of modern medical imaging
    and sensing.
    2. Critically evaluate, compare and contrast the primary methods in clinical practice for investigation of
    the human body and brain.
    3. Perform quantitative and qualitative assessments related to the theoretical and practical constraints
    on state-of-the-art imaging and sensing technologies, including spatial and temporal resolution,
    sensitivity, and specificity for the structural or functional properties to be detected.
    4. Understand key drivers for application development, including an appreciation of how medical imaging
    and sensing support areas of diagnostics, surgery, and therapy.
