Course objectives
At the end of this course the student will be able to understand and explain the theoretical basis of almost all modern diagnostic and therapeutic medical devices, but also equipment that is now used in non-medical fields. The main objective of this course is to acquaint students with the most important biophysical principles (in combination with a vivid demonstration of various special instruments and equipment used in the field). At the same time teaching also focused on the development of scientific, effective, safe and efficient access of students to the use of biomedical technologies and capabilities of a description of the laws of physics to living systems.
