Subject: Bioengineering
Course Number: 241
Course Title: Metabolism and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
Units: 3
School: Graduate Division
Department: Bioengineering Program

Course Description: This course is designed to follow Bioengineering 240 or Biomedical Imaging 201, Magnetic Resonance Imaging. It will build on the fundamental aspects of magnetic resonance physics presented in the first course, but will focus on MR spectroscopy which provides metabolic and biochemical information. The course will cover basic theory, underlying biochemistry and physiology, techniques for acquiring and processing MR spectroscopic data, and biomedical applications for this emerging medical modality.
