Content

This 0.5 CU course provides a comprehensive introduction to the field of imaging informatics, with a focus on radiology as the clinical imaging domain. Students will learn about the importance of informatics to the clinical practice of radiology, the unique types of data encountered, relevant data and transactional standards, the growing role of artificial intelligence in radiology, and the challenges faced by imaging informaticists around the globe. This course is geared to any student interested in imaging informatics, and does not require prior training or experience in medicine or medical imaging. Homework assignments include synthesizing reading content and preparing written responses, managing radiology data though coding, and using generative AI to explore health literacy. Unlike other offerings in the course catalog, Imaging Informatics provides a distinctive blend of informatics and radiology, focusing on practical applications and hands-on experience in managing and interpreting medical imaging data, with less focus on intensive coding and technical skill development.
