Participants We are looking forward to motivated students who are eager to gain practical experience in designing, programming, and optimizing medical systems.

This module is open to students enrolled in the following study programs: ETITMS, ETMS, MEDMS.
If you are interested in this module but are not enrolled in these degree programs, please check your curriculum to see whether this module can also be credited as a supplementary technical course.
Learning organisation We will hold a kick-off meeting on 11th April at 12:15 pm, where we will present our project ideas and discuss your contributions. In the following weeks, you will organize your work as a team and plan your working hours individually. There will be interim meetings to discuss progress and milestones.

Comment/Description

How can a human respiratory system be realistically simulated? Respiratory movement plays a crucial role in medicine, as it influences the position of organs and thus significantly determines the accuracy of imaging, diagnosis, and interventions such as radiotherapy or needle biopsies. In this interdisciplinary practical project, you will develop an actuated, 3D-printed phantom of the thorax. The most important work packages could include: 1) Image processing: automatic segmentation of the thorax from different CT data sets 2) 3D Printing: Parameterization and design of a 3D printable rib cage considering the joints 3) Electrical + control engineering: Development of an actuated model with adjustable breathing dynamics 4) Evaluation + characterization of the phantom You will combine image processing, 3D printing, material science, sensor technology, and control engineering. Your results will be tested in a medical context.
