With this 100% online qualification, you will use radioactive substances to obtain accurate and detailed images of the interior of the human body”

The benefits of Radiophysics Applied to Nuclear Medicine include visualization of internal biological processes, such as drug distribution or organ function, by detecting radiation emitted by nuclear tracers. This technique enables early and accurate diagnosis of diseases, facilitating a more specific and effective approach. In addition, Radiophysics ensures controlled and safe administration of radiation, optimizing treatments to minimize side effects. 

For this reason, TECHhas developed this postgraduate diploma, which will cover a broad spectrum of crucial knowledge, such as Radiobiology, where the interactions of ionizing radiation with biological tissues will be analyzed. In this way, the chain of cellular and biological effects generated by radiation will be unraveled, in addition to delve into the radiosensitivity of tissues, radioinduced damage and repair mechanisms. 

Likewise, the physician will delve into radiopharmaceuticals in Nuclear Medicine, revealing their role in both diagnosis and therapy. It will also explore the key equipment used in hospitals, from activimeters to gamma cameras and PET, explaining their components, operation and image acquisition techniques.

Radiation protection will also be addressed from a historical perspective, including current legal complexities. The graduate will also delve into international regulations and their practical application in hospital environments, with emphasis on Nuclear Medicine, Radiation Oncology and Radiodiagnosis.  Finally, the functions of a Radiological Protection Service in the hospital will be detailed, including the management of personal dosimetry and the design of medical facilities to minimize occupational exposure of workers.
