Radioprotection is considered a a basic discipline to help student to understand the risks of ionizing radiations used in diagnostic imaging and therapy. Radioprotection relates to the risk of population, patients and nurses or other technical graduated in the Professional Health Science who can be exposted to ionizing radiations.
The learning outcomes are:
- to understand what is an ionization radiations
2. which radiological units are employed in medical science
3. the units of measure of Radiation Dose and Radioprotection
4. the Radiological areas at risk of exposition
5. the shieldings used to protect people from radiations
6. the preliminary concepts of radiobiology who favours the best knowledge of radioprotection
6. the professional figures who rule the Radioprotection procedures
Any Student with documented Specific Learning Disorders (SLD), or with any special needs, shall reach out to the Lecturer(s) and to the dedicated SLD Representative in the School/Department before class begins, in order to arrange the specific teaching methods and ensure proper achievement of the learning outcomes
The course of Radioprotection airms at the best knowledge of basic concepts of Radioprotection (Type of Radiations, Units of measure ( Gy, Sievert, Bequerel), Professional graduated involved in radioprotection ( medical Doctor specialist in Diagnostic Imaging, Radiotherapy and Nuclear Medicine,, and all graduated in Professional Health.
