Imaging Systems Laboratory

The Imaging Systems Laboratory is used for practical teaching of courses dealing with imaging systems in medicine. Teaching takes place at both the bachelor’s and master’s levels. The laboratory is equipped with clinical instruments as well as simplified devices designed to demonstrate the physical principles of various imaging techniques. In addition, individual workstations are equipped with computers that allow simulations of phenomena which cannot be carried out in a school laboratory.

Main activities

  • Teaching of the courses Imaging Systems in Medicine (BPC-ZSL), Imaging Systems Using Non-Ionizing Radiation (MPC-ZSZ), Imaging Systems Using Ionizing Radiation (MPC-ZIZ), Practical Training in Imaging Methods (MPC-ZBM), and Diagnostic and Therapeutic Technology (SDTT)
  • Implementation of short-term experiments using X-ray radiation up to 35 kV
  • Implementation of short-term experiments using diagnostic ultrasound
  • Supervision of bachelor’s and master’s theses in the field of imaging systems and image data processing

Laboratory equipment

  • 2× GE System FiVe ultrasound systems, sector probes 2.5 MHz and 3.5 MHz
  • NIDEK ophthalmic ultrasound (A-mode, B-mode, biometry, pachymetry)
  • 3× LD Didactic X-ray teaching chambers with tubes made of various materials
  • CT module for the X-ray chamber
  • Flir Tau2 thermal camera
  • Sets of equipment for demonstrating nuclear magnetic resonance and electron spin resonance from various manufacturers
  • 3B Scientific ultrasound generator (1 MHz)
  • US Key (Le Coeur électrique) – USB ultrasound system
  • Olympus ultrasound transducers with various frequencies
