You will incorporate to your professional practice the use of the latest detectors for radiation measurement through this complete 100% online program" 

Radiation Dosimetry is of great importance to the medical industry. It is a critical aspect to ensure that users are protected from the harmful effects of irradiations while they are used for disease diagnosis. In addition, this measure also makes it possible to control the amount of irradiation to which workers are exposed, thus ensuring that they do not exceed the established safety limits.  In view of this, more and more entities are seeking to incorporate Radiophysics professionals into their teams to take the appropriate procedures to minimize risks.  

In response to this need, TECH has implemented a comprehensive program focused on the technology used in healthcare fields such as Radiodiagnosis. Designed by an experienced faculty, this curriculum will analyze charged particle interactions, among which Auger electrons and X-rays stand out. In addition, the teaching materials will address detectors for the measurement of ionizing radiation, addressing factors such as the dissociation of matter or detectors in the hospital setting. The contents will also delve into thermoluminescence dosimeters, emphasizing the usefulness of the calibration process. In this way, graduates will effectively develop the limits of the different dosimetric magnitudes. 

It should be noted that the methodology of this program reinforces its innovative character. TECHoffers a 100% online learning environment, adapted to the needs of busy professionals seeking to advance their careers. In addition, it will employ the  Relearning methodology, based on the repetition of key concepts to fix knowledge and facilitate learning. In this way, the combination of flexibility and a robust pedagogical approach makes it highly accessible. In addition, physicians will have access to a didactic library with a variety of multimedia resources in different formats such as interactive summaries, explanatory videos and infographics. Specialists will also learn in simulated learning environments to extract valuable lessons to be applied in their work practice.
