1 SYLLABUS Date/ Revision : 30 January 2017/1 Faculty : Life Sciences Approval : Dean, Faculty of Life Sciences SUBJECT : Biophysics 1. Identification of Subject: Name of Subject : Biophysics Code of Subject : BIOP-3900 SKS : 3 Semester : 5 Study Program : Biomedical Engineering Lecturer : Tutun Nugraha PhD 2. Competency This course specifically address various aspects that underly the physics ofmedical imaging. Students will be exposed to theinteractin of radiation with human body, its measurement and how this technology became the basis of some medical imaging technology. Furthermore students will also be exposed to the basis of computed tommography, magnetic resonance imaging and ultraound that have found multiple uses in the field of biomedical Engineering. 3. Description of Subject: The course covers introductory yet comprehensive aspects of image formation in modern medical imaging modalities, from radiography, fluoroscopy, and computed tomography, to magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound. The course discuss the techniques and instrumentation used in the rapidly changing field of medical imaging. 4. Learning Approach Approach Method Student Task Media : Expository, inquiry, collaborative : Lecture presentation, Focus group discussion, team work : Appraisal, group presentation : Power Point presentation, print out of journals File: Syllabus Biophysics.docx 1/5 QT 06.02/Rev.03
