Continuing Education and Lifelong Learning Medical Physics for Physicists
In medical physics, and especially in radiation therapy, imaging techniques are constantly opening up new diagnostic and therapeutic that also reduce radiation exposure for patients. The continuing education program comprises over 360 teaching hours and corresponds to the curriculum of the German Society for Medical Physics (DGMP). It is recognized by the DGMP as proof of theoretical knowledge in the specialty field of radiation therapy.
