Course Goal / Objective
This course aims to teach how to perform morphometric analyses using MRI, CT, and other medical imaging methods. It provides knowledge on modern digital anatomy techniques by addressing AI-assisted measurement methods, anatomical data analysis, and clinical imaging processes.
Course Content
This course aims to examine the anatomical analysis of data obtained through medical imaging techniques and AI-assisted measurement processes. Students will learn to perform morphometric assessments using MRI, CT, and digital modeling methods. The course is supported by AI-based data analysis, automatic segmentation, measurement algorithms, and clinical applications.
Course Precondition
There are no prerequisites for this course.
Resources
1. Current articles and online resources 2. Digital Anatomy and 3D Modeling Resources 3. Dere Anatomi Atlası ve Ders Kitabı 4. Dere Atlaslı Nöroanatomi ve Fonksiyonel Nöroloji
Notes
Additional readings will be provided during the course.
