OVERVIEW

Provide general knowledge of the principles and tools on which imaging and radiotherapy is based. Know the principles of radiation protection and dosimetry. To frame the role of image diagnostics in the context of different pathologies. At the end of the course the student will be able to apply the appropriate examinations to clarify specific diagnostic questions.
