The wide application of ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, radionuclides, gamma therapy units, electron and proton accelerators, and computer tomographs in medicine has turned medical physics into a kind of "strategic arms" and one of the bases of medicine in the present and future. Modern applied medical physics is concerned with radiation therapy, nuclear medicine, radiation diagnostics, non-ionizing diagnostics and therapy, computer facilities and mathematical modeling in diagnostics and therapy, radiation safety, and radioecology.
The purpose of the School was to acquaint students and postgraduates with latest achievements and current problems of applied medical physics.
Language: The official language of the School was English.
