Description
This course is the second part of a lecture series that teaches the physical basics of biomedical applications in clinics and research. It continues the first part of the series, "Biomedical Physics I", but can be attended without prior knowledge.These applications include radiation therapy, laser applications and microscopy. Specifically, the following main topics are covered in these applications:
- radiobiology
- accelerator sources for radiation therapy
- radiation planning
- proton therapy
- laser applications
- light microscopy
- fluorescence microscopy
- X-ray microscopy
