Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is only offered to the students of the study fields the course is directly associated with.
fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
Course objectives
At the end of the course students should be able: understand and explain biophysical principles and laws; operate basic biophysical devices; evaluate obtained data by the basic biophysical methods in light of a scientific, effective, safe and efficient attitude to their use;
Learning outcomes
After finishing this course the student will (with emphasis on dental medicine):
- understand the most important biophysical principles and laws;
- master the measurement by means of the basic biophysical instruments as well as the statical evaluation of this measurement;
- evaluate the results obtained by the basic biophysical methods; understand the principles of some more complex medical diagnostic devices;
- differentiate the application possibilities of biophysical methods and medical devices in practice.

Teaching methods
Practical exercises
Assessment methods
Basic requirement is the full atendance in the lessons. Theoretical knowledges of the principles used methods are continuously controled by oral examination, in case of fundamental ignorance, student can be excluded from a lesson. For all tasks students must elaborate comprehensive and unique report, these are graded. If are two or more reports graded as "unsuccessful", student cannot write a closing test. Course is finished by the multiple choice test consisting usually 20 questions, evaluated by 20 points. For successfully mastered test student need at least 10 points.
