Aim and content
This course is free of charge for PhD students at Danish universities (except Copenhagen Business School), and for PhD Students from NorDoc member universities. All other participants must pay the course fee.
Anyone can apply for the course, but if you are not a PhD student at a Danish university, you will be placed on the waiting list until enrollment deadline. This also applies to PhD students from NorDoc member universities. After the enrollment deadline, available seats will be allocated to applicants on the waiting list.
Learning objectives
A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to:
1. Explain tracer kinetic principles in physiology, nuclear medicine and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
2. Define Fick’s principle, compartments and rate constants
3. Theorize on impulse response function, exponential functions and convolution
4. Reflect on own project from a tracer kinetic perspective
5. Understand trade-offs with different kinetic modeling
6. Evaluate and select among kinetic models used for performing kinetic analysis of dynamic datasets
7. Mention which features of a radioligand makes it useful
Content
Aspects covered: basic mathematics, introduction to SPECT, PET, and MRI, steady state, indicator diffusion, Fick's principle, clearance, extraction, mean transit time, convolution and impulse response, residue detection, Kety-Schmidt method, receptor kinetics and quantification, models of glucose consumption (Sokoloff), water exchange and perfusion measurement, practical exercises on simulated and real datasets. The participants are encouraged to present and discuss their own projects.
Participants
PhD students in medicine, biophysics, physics, chemistry, and biology. Graduates with interest in this field.
Relevance to graduate programmes
The course is relevant to PhD students from the following graduate programmes at the Graduate School of Health and Medical Sciences, UCPH:
All graduate programmes
Language
English (unless there is only Danish speaking participants)
Form
Interactive teaching with examples and PC exercises
