learning outcome
Students will be
able to understand and apply basic processing algorithms for computer-aided
diagnosis and therapy.

The students are able to evaluate methods of computer support with regard to the reliability of results, the plausibility check by the user, the comprehensibility and the interpretability of computer-supported applications by medical experts.
The students are able to present a scientific application area in a lecture to the group. They are able to evaluate presentations on the basis of evaluation criteria.
contentThe course "Computer-Aided Diagnosis and Therapy" focuses on diseases, their detection and treatment. These medical aspects will be discussed using a number of relevant examples, including heart disease, lung disease, and tumor disease. Requirements for computer assistance are derived and examples of such systems are presented. Computer support is often used to automatically detect suspicious regions or to better inform therapeutic decisions. The focus is not on algorithmic details, but on the evaluation of computer support from a clinical point of view. This includes questions of reliability of results, plausibility checks by users, comprehensibility and interpretability of computer-aided visualizations by medical experts. Integration into clinical processes also plays an important role. In this course, the corresponding exercise will take place in the form of a seminar, in which individual topics of the lecture will be deepened and further interesting research work will be presented and discussed.
