The course in Medical Radiology, Imaging and Radiotherapy Techniques is organized in 6 semesters, has a duration of 3 years and ends with a final exam with qualifying value and the release of the degree diploma in Medical Radiology, Imaging and Radiotherapy Techniques (qualifying for the health profession of Medical Radiology Technician, for imaging and radiotherapy).
1st year
It is aimed at providing a good knowledge of the essential theoretical disciplines that derive from the basic sciences, with a view to their subsequent professional application. The fundamentals of the disciplines characterizing the profession of the Medical Radiology Technician will also be learned, as well as the concepts of radiation protection and safety as prerequisites for facing the first internship experience aimed from the second semester at the gradual orientation of the student towards all the professional areas of reference (radiodiagnostics, radiotherapy, nuclear medicine and health physics).
2nd year
It is aimed at the in-depth study of the most advanced and specific IT and technical procedures, always towards all professional areas of reference. With the internship experiences provided in the specific sectors in which the student can experiment in parallel with the knowledge, methodologies and techniques learned, relational and communication skills will be perfected.
3rd year
It provides a specialized in-depth study with particular reference to interventional radiology, neuroradiology and the acquisition of knowledge and methodologies inherent to professional practice, health legislation and the organization of services as well as the legal, bioethical and deontological principles that inspire the profession.
The relevance assigned to internship experiences in which the student can experience a gradual assumption of autonomy and responsibility under the supervision of experts is increased. This curricular logic is also reflected in the choice of credits assigned to internship experiences, which gradually increase from the 1st to the 3rd year.
