The course contains basic information about the effects of ionizing radiation and routinely used imaging methods and radiotherapy.
The main purpose of the course is to provide a comprehensive source of information from an important area on the border of theoretical disciplines (physics and biology) and clinical diagnostics and therapy. In these clinical disciplines, physical processes are applied in practice and their knowledge is necessary to understand the methodology and potential adverse effects in clinical medical practice. At the same time, medical technology is an essential part of both diagnostics and radiotherapy.
