Module Exam
Description of exams and course work
The exam takes the form of a written test. The duration is 90 minutes and no material is allowed (closed book). Questions allow to assess whether the student is able to understand fundamentals, differences and application areas of medical imaging modalities as well as methods for medical image processing and computer aided surgery. Small case studies assess whether the student is able to select an appropriate imaging modality or algorithm for a given application.
Exam Repetition
The exam may be repeated at the end of the semester.
Current exam dates
Currently TUMonline lists the following exam dates. In addition to the general information above please refer to the current information given during the course.
