Content: The module focuses primarily on discussingestablished imaging techniques including (a) optical and infrared imaging, (b)magnetic resonance imaging, (c) X-ray imaging and tomography, and (d)ultrasound imaging and also covers a range of more recent imaging modalities.The students will learn: - whatthese imaging techniques can measure (such as sample density or concentration,material transport, chemical composition, temperature),
- howthe measurements work (physical measurement principles, hardware requirements,image reconstruction), and
- howto determine the most suited imaging methods for a given problem.
Learning goals: After the successful completion ofthe course, the students shall: - understandthe physical principles and practical aspects of the most common imagingmethods,
- beable to assess the pros and cons of these methods with regard to cost,complexity, expected contrasts, spatial and temporal resolution, and based onthis assessment
- beable to identify the most suited imaging modality for any specific engineeringchallenge in the field of chemical and bioprocess engineering.
