About the Expert3D courses

Comprehensive Transversal Program in Medical Image Post Processing:
3D Printing and Artificial Intelligence

Innovative training programmes in image processing and 3D printing, to provide health-related professionals the theoretical and practical knowledge they need to use new imaging technologies for diagnosis and research in their daily practice.

The EXPERT3D courses will enable professionals to perform post-processing of the radiological image for healthcare and research – employing advances like 3D image-prints, virtual technologies and artificial intelligence. These disruptive technologies have fostered the merger of engineering and medicine, creating a demand for professionals with new skills that unite the two disciplines.

EXPERT3D courses will provide the students with the training needed, gathering multidisciplinary instructors with years of practical experience in post-processing of the medical image, planned surgery, 3D printing and use of the image for research.

This is the first set of programmes on medical imaging for diagnosis that targets not only physicians, but also bioengineers, computer scientists, senior technicians in diagnostics imaging and other medical specialists. Given the range of specialties involved, learners will not be required to have prior computer programming knowledge, though those with that knowledge will be guided to understand the basics of 3D imaging and to develop AI algorithms for image processing.

The program is divided into 2 separate courses: 1. Professional3D, focusing on 3D technologies and 2. ProfessionalAI, focusing on AI and radiomics. Students can choose to take either 1 course or the complete program including the 2 courses and a final Conference day in AI.

The learning will take place through a mixture of online training and a 2 weeks in-person practical programme in the Professional3D Course. ProfessionalAI being full-online and the final AI Conference face-to-face in Barcelona.

This project is an international collaboration between public and private institutions and the EIT Health.

Your Learning Journey

This online and onsite program takes you through the fundamentals of radiological imaging, 3D and research imaging post-process that are transforming our world today.

Video lectures and discussions

All modules include a series of video lectures by faculty, accompanied by more informal discussions on select topics.

Demonstrations and interactive assignments

Demonstrations and online exercises accompany each module. These serve to illustrate key concepts.

Peer discussion groups

Discussion boards are an integral part of each module and provide a forum where participants can interact, share ideas, and ask questions

Live Q&A sessions

Live webinars with EXPERT3D faculty provide opportunity for additional instruction as well as Q&A sessions for the group.
