Profile

In the medical informatics laboratories, we design applications at the interface between medicine, care and innovative technology. From image and signal processing to software technology and the management of electronic health records, the content taught in our degree program is as diverse as medicine itself. With their high-tech equipment, the Medical Informatics laboratories provide the basis for practical training and enable students to apply the theoretical knowledge acquired in lectures from the fields of

telematics and telemedicine
Visualization and interaction
Virtual applications, 3D computer vision in medicine
Image and signal processing in medicine
Data protection and data security
Knowledge-based systems
Management of the electronic health record
Commercial applications in medicine
