Basic aspects of the interaction of ionizing radiation with matter. Bohr atom, atomic spectra, radioactivity, energetics of decay. Sources of radiation, penetration of charged particles, electro- magnetic radiation, and neutrons through matter; excitation and ionization processes; selected nuclear reactions; basic radiation detection and dosimetry.
The uses and dosimetric aspects of radiation in medicine will be analyzed, including many basic applications in the fields of diagnostic radiology physics, therapy physics, and nuclear medical physics.
A continuation of RAS/RM 647. Specialized and advanced topics in nuclear medicine imaging physics, including positron emission tomographic procedures, emerging new modalities, and quality control.
Specialized experiments involving the use, calibration, and quality control of X-ray and other diagnostic imaging equipment, and the appropriate use of radiation detectors in diagnostics physics measurements. Laboratory, approximately 30 hours per credit. May be repeated to a maximum of three credits.
Independent directed research on theoretical and practical problems in the health-related radiation sciences. May be repeated to a maximum of eight credits.
Topics of current interest relating to radiation and its applications in the areas of radiological medical physics and health physics. May be repeated to a maximum of four credit hours with consent of instructor.
