Course objectives
At the end of this course which is a continuation of a first-semester course with the same name, the student should be able to: explain the principles of selected imaging and other physical mwethods in medicine; understand the action of ionising radiation on both normal and tumour tissues; recognise the risks connected with the use of ionizing radiation in medicine - both for patients and the healthcare professionals; understand the physical principles of dosimetry and the dosimetric quantities.
