Laboratory investigations are an integral part of the course. This course emphasizes the physical basis of radiology and nuclear medicine. Topics include interaction of radiation with matter, radiation detection and monitoring, dosimetry, range-energy relationships, and radiation safety. Laboratory investigations are an integral part of the course. This course explores the design and function of DC and AC circuits, power supplies, amplifiers, oscillators, and semiconductor devices.
Attention is given to digital electronics and micro-processors.
Laboratory work is an integral part of the course. This course includes studies from classical physics such as linear oscillations, non-linear oscillations, rigid body dynamics, and central force field motion. This course examines concepts from classical electricity and magnetism such as electrostatics, study of fields in dielectrics, magnetic forces, and electric and magnetic properties of matter. Maxwell's equations of electromagnetic theory are introduced. This course focuses on geometrical and physical optics including wave propagation, reflection, refraction, dispersion, interference, diffraction, and polarization.
