PDRT 5320 RADIOLOGICAL PHYSICS & DOSTRY

This course will cover the fundamental concepts of radiation physics and radiation dosimetry. The main focus will be on quantitative description of the interaction of ionizing radiation with matter and on how to theoretically predict and experimentally measure the absorbed energy in matter. The covered material will conform to the curriculum of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine to cover the essential medical physics didactic elements related to radiological physics and dosimetry for individuals entering the medical physics profession through an alternative pathway.
