I love love love this image for some reason.

Until May 30th nobody will hear much of anything from me. The workload for this whopping length of time that counts as a full semester is manageable but entirely consumed by medical digital images.

This course will focus on the usage and characteristics of medical images as well as two critical medical informatics standards used for exchanging relevant information such as patient demographics, orders, laboratory tests, and diagnostic images. These two standards, DICOM and HL7, will be explored in detail.

At least I'm learning fast, I already could tell the difference between CT, U/S, X-Ray & MRI images but that's already expanded to 6 other modalities. w00t.

You'd probably like this too. It's the work of an orthopedic surgeon (without a God complex) who is one of our extended clan of cousins, so no stealing his images hehe Be sure to read the explanations :)
