Our Master of Science in Medical Imaging Science explores a diverse field crucial for diagnosis, treatment tracking, and patient care. Imaging serves as a vital instrument in medical investigations, with growing potential to connect imaging findings with genetic characteristics across individuals and groups. Innovative imaging biomarkers for diseases can facilitate quicker, more accurate diagnoses and guide pharmaceutical development strategies. Since medical imaging integrates expertise from anatomy, physiology, pathology, pharmacology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, engineering, and computing, our program is ideal for those seeking to broaden their knowledge in these areas. The curriculum addresses the fundamental principles and technologies underlying major medical imaging techniques, along with cutting-edge imaging approaches, clinical and research uses, diagnostic markers, and computational techniques. Students will discover how sophisticated imaging methods are employed in medical studies and pharmaceutical research, with particular focus on magnetic resonance (MR) and positron emission tomography (PET). Additionally, the program provides instruction in computational and quantitative image analysis techniques or in evaluating clinical images from various imaging systems.

Qualification Requirements
This course is open to applicants with a biomedical science, physical science or engineering background. We require a minimum Upper Second honours degree or overseas equivalent from a recognised institution, or a relevant postgraduate qualification (minimum PGDip or equivalent). Candidates from a physical science or engineering background with a Lower Second honours degree or equivalent may be accepted subject to interview. Intercalating Year 3 or 4 medical students at The University of Manchester or other UK medical schools should normally have passed all course units at first attempt in the two years prior to intercalation. All applicants should also have passed mathematics or physics at least to a standard equivalent to English GCE A-level at grade B. International students must demonstrate English proficiency through a secure and approved testing system. Specifically, we require a minimum of: IELTS: 6.5 overall with at least 6.0 in writing; TOEFL: 90 iBT (with at least 21 in writing and speaking)
