Learning outcomes
The purpose of the course is to introduce the main theoretical and practical tools that are necessary for signal and image processing, including both natural and medical images.
At the end of the course, the students will be able to apply the methodologies studied and employ image processing software tools for tackling some typical tasks in the analysis of medical and biomedical images.

Examination Methods
The lab. exam consists in an exercise to be implemented in Matlab. This does not contribute to the final score. The theory exam is in written form.
Both the exams must be passed during the same examination session.
