About this programme
Medical physicists are professionals with MS or PhD degrees, specializing in the technical and clinical aspects of diagnosis and therapy. They work alongside MDs and technologists, contributing to technical areas such as imaging, radiation therapy, and radiation safety. The field is governed by organizations like the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM), the American Board of Radiology (ABR), and CAMPEP (Commission on Accreditation of Medical Physics Educational Programs). The medical physics field benefits significantly from NIH funding in radiation and radiological sciences, placing JHU in a competitive position among institutions.
