Clinical Physics Rotation I

3.0 credits

This practicum experience is designed to give students a basic introduction to the quality assurance tasks that clinical physicists perform on a regular basis. Students will rotate through 3 rotations each for a specified duration, learning the basics of clinical medical physics. The course will consist of shadowing clinical physicists through routine clinical tasks. A brief course will be attended concurrently by all students reviewing the basics of radiation safety, professionalism, and clinical expectations before the start of any shadowing.
