Το Τμήμα Ιατρικής του Πανεπιστημίου Θεσσαλίας ανακοινώνει την έναρξη υποβολής αιτήσεων του Προγράμματος Μεταπτυχιακών Σπουδών (ΠΜΣ) με τίτλο «Φυσικές Αρχές Βιοϊατρικής Απεικόνισης και Ακτινοπροστασία»  για το ακαδημαϊκό έτος 2025-2026, το οποίο οδηγεί στην απονομή αντίστοιχου Διπλώματος Μεταπτυχιακών Σπουδών (ΔΜΣ) και διέπεται από τον κανονισμό μεταπτυχιακών Σπουδών του Πανεπιστημίου Θεσσαλίας.

The P.M.S. "Physical Principles of Biomedical Imaging and Radiation Protection" has as its mission to cultivate and promote, through academic and applied teaching and research, the high-level training of researchers and health professionals in the basic operating principles of biomedical imaging, biomedical research in image analysis and processing and in providing scientifically proven knowledge about radiation protection, both in the fields of ionizing and non-ionizing radiation. It will provide its Graduates with the necessary supplies that will provide them with excellent training for their academic, scientific and research careers in a scientific field with ever-increasing demands.

Purpose:

The student of P.M.S. "Physical Principles of Biomedical Imaging and Radioprotection" you will gain knowledge and understanding of:

• the basic operating principles of biomedical imaging from simple x-rays, to fluoroscopy, invasive radiological operations and computed tomography (CT), nuclear medicine and molecular imaging applications (scintigraphy, SPECT, PET), but also non-ionizing radiation such as ultrasound , magnetic resonance imaging, laser electron microscopy, etc.
• the fundamentals of advanced imaging techniques and state-of-the-art technology.
• the use of image analysis tools and imaging biomarker processing with advanced machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques.
• the risks from the use of radiation to hospital staff and patients.
• the handling of radiation for medical purposes safely for staff and patients and the prevention and management of accidents
• the legal framework governing the use of radiation.
• the quality assurance in radiological operations (chain patient – staff – machines – space) through the faithful observance of radiation protection rules.

In addition, the PMS "Physical Principles of Biomedical Imaging and Radiation Protection" is highly research-oriented and facilitates the natural continuation of doctoral studies.

The PMS is addressed to:

• Health professionals, qualified doctors, graduates of medicine, nursing as well as other schools of positive direction (physicists, engineers, technologists, graduates of Public Health departments, etc.) of the country and similar recognized institutions abroad (recognition of title by DIKATSA-DOATAP).
• Graduates of HEIs and ATEIs of other specialties under conditions of additional criteria and consideration of proven professional and research experience related to the subject of the P.M.S., after a decision of the S.E. and validation by ST

THE duration of time studies is defined in 3 semesters, including the time required for the preparation and submission of a thesis.

1st (Winter) semester: Theoretical training

2nd (Spring) semester: Theoretical training

3rd (Winter) semester: Diploma thesis

The successful completion of the program includes the attendance and examination of the ten (10) compulsory courses, as well as the preparation and presentation of the Diploma Thesis (90 ECTS).
