Healthcare is being transformed by the combination of AI and medical imaging, enabling new ways of understanding how the body works, diagnosing disease and monitoring treatment. This course will equip you to drive innovation in this exciting field.
You will learn how to develop state-of-the-art methods for extracting information from medical images, built on a thorough understanding of how images are acquired using a variety of different modalities, such as MR, CT and PET. You will discover how images are used to inform models of the human body and in simulation as part of in silico (computer-based) imaging trials.
The curriculum integrates cutting-edge AI and machine learning (ML) with core principles of image science. Through hands-on training and strong theoretical foundations, you will learn to create novel imaging solutions, enhance diagnostic accuracy and support clinical decision-making.
This course will be of particular interest if you have a background in maths, physics or computer science and would like to apply your knowledge to medical imaging technologies.
A key strength of the course is its focus on practical application. Graduates will be prepared to translate pioneering research into real-world impact, applying AI and ML models to diverse imaging challenges, from general healthcare to personalised medicine and precision diagnostics.
By uniting the latest technology with an interdisciplinary approach, this MSc will train the next generation of AI-driven healthcare innovators.
