- ('programs' ?)
-
-
- Work areas: Yes:
-
- AI/ Expert Systems -- as for medical diagnosis;
-
- Image processing/ analysis -- processing CAT/ NMR scans, X-ray plates;
-
- (General programming -- relieve medics from admin tasks!; :-)
-
-
- As for somewhere to LEARN about all this...
-
- Over here in the UK you could complete a medic degree and then take
- a one year taught 'computers' MSc, taking whatever modules were of
- interest. Manchester would be good due to large computer and medical
- departments with good links between the two.
-
- Computer projects for medical applications are available.
