The Department of Medical Physics is dedicated to advancing the application of physical sciences in medical diagnosis and treatment. As a clinical discipline recognized by the International Labour Organization (ISCO) since 2008, Medical Physics integrates scientific principles with modern healthcare practices to ensure the safe and effective use of radiation and imaging technologies.

Our core areas of expertise include Radiation Therapy Physics, Radiation Protection, Diagnostic Radiology (including CT, MRI, and related imaging modalities), and Nuclear Medicine. The department also contributes to clinical practice in radiobiology, medical imaging systems, ultrasound technologies, and laser applications. While closely aligned with Biomedical Engineering and Biophysics, Medical Physics maintains its distinct identity as a scientific and clinical specialty.

Rooted in foundational discoveries of the late 19th century—particularly radioactivity and ionizing radiation—the field has evolved through major scientific milestones, including several early Nobel Prize–winning contributions thatshaped modern Medical Physics.
