Course Description: this course is a imaging physics review course. It is designed for residents or radiologists to have a clear and fundamental understanding of the theory and applications of physics in radiology, nuclear medicine, and radiobiology. the copurse provides key coverage of the clinical implications of technical principlesfor for radiologist board review. The course covers completely updated and expanded topics and basic concepts and major subjects in diagnostic radiology, nuclear medicine, and radiation protection, dosimetry, and biology.
