Description

Medical Physicists will contribute to maintaining and improving the quality, safety and cost-effectiveness of healthcare services through patient-oriented activities requiring expert action, involvement or advice regarding the specification, selection, acceptance testing, commissioning, quality assurance/control and optimised clinical use of medical devices and regarding patient risks and protection from associated physical agents (e.g. x-rays, electromagnetic fields, laser light, radionuclides) including the prevention of unintended or accidental exposures; all activities will be based on current best evidence or own scientific research when the available evidence is not sufficient. Medical physics is also called biomedical physics, medical biophysics or applied physics in medicine is, generally speaking, the application of physics concepts, theories and methods to medicine or healthcare. Medical physics departments may be found in hospitals or universities. Medical physics has a much wider scope and may include research in any applications of physics to medicine from the study of biomolecular structure to microscopy and nanomedicine. Insights in Medical Physics is an open access scientifc journal which publishes peer reviewed articles in the area of medical physics. The journal publish articles with theoretical and experimental contributions for publication covering all dimensions of medical physics such as application of radiation physics with relation to radiation therapies, nuclear medicine related physics applications, medical imaging, signal processing and signal output analysis for medical devices, application of physics in biomedical devise development, computer aided image analysis etc.
