The program consists of the following modules: Master's thesis (30 ECTS), Specialist subjects in Radiotherapy (30 ECTS), Internship in Radiotherapy (30 ECTS), and Basic subjects (30 ECTS, incl. elective subjects 6 ECTS).

MRI Technologists are healthcare professionals who use specialized MRI equipment to create images of structures inside the human body. They must be able to communicate effectively with people at all health levels. Throughout the program, MRI Technologists will be supervised by board-certified radiologists, who will guide and facilitate learning experiences.

The Radiologic Technology program, which is accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT), is designed to prepare students to function as certified radiologic technologists. Students will gain knowledge and understanding of the diagnostic uses of X-rays, as well as the technical skills to use x-ray equipment in both laboratory and clinical settings. The courses are developed to enable students to operate x-ray equipment, assist in the diagnosis of disease, and observe proper medical ethics. Students will learn the nature of radiation, the principles of electricity, the structure of x-ray machines, and the operation of a clinical x-ray department.

The master’s program in medical physics combines your interest in physics with applications in medicine. You will study how radiation is used within health care to diagnose and treat diseases, and you will undergo practical training at the hospital.

As a radiologic technologist, you have the power to capture essential information and help provide clarity. In this program, you’ll learn how to use ionizing radiation to create two-dimensional X-rays to assist physicians in the diagnosis of disease.

X-ray technologists or radiographers operate X-ray equipment to generate diagnostic images of the human body. They perform radiologic examinations independently as well as assisting radiologists or other physicians to meet their imaging needs. They work in hospitals, medical imaging centers, and clinics. X-ray technologists have a comprehensive knowledge of human anatomy and physiology. They are educated in patient care. And they are educated about the hazards of ionizing radiation so that they can perform their tasks in a safe, responsible, and professional manner. This 2-year program leads to an Associate in Applied Science Degree in Radiologic Science, as well as a certificate of completion.

You’ll get clinical practice through hands-on instruction with equipment used routinely in the hospital setting, including state-of-the-art MRI and CT facilities, and medical linear accelerators, which will prepare you for research or clinical training in this rapidly changing field. You’ll also get tuition in computer-based modelling, research methodology and the ethical dimensions associated with medical research.

The course in Medical Radiology Imaging and Radiotherapy Technicians of the Department of Medicine, Surgery and Neuroscience of our University has historical roots in the Sienese radiological reality, which has been at the forefront since the 1930s.

In this accredited program, you’ll learn to use sophisticated imaging tools—such as X-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI—to capture images that help doctors treat and diagnose diseases and injuries. Courses explore anatomy, physiology, positioning and radiographic techniques. You’ll also receive hands-on clinical training in local medical imaging departments.

The doctoral (Ph.D.) degree program entitled “Imaging Methods in Medicine” covers various qualitative and quantitative methods of image analysis in biology and medicine. Research and the development of new imaging techniques and procedures, as well as the analysis, processing, and interpretation of data, are also emphasized, including artificial intelligence. The degree program is closely related to molecular biology, molecular imaging, radiology, nuclear medicine, pathology, and many other fundamental and clinical fields of biomedicine. The standard length of study is four (4) years. The program is carried out without any specialization.

The purpose of the qualification is to develop a professional radiation therapist who is competent in the knowledge and skills required for Radiation Therapy and has gained experience in applying such knowledge and skills in accredited workplaces.

The purpose of the Radiologic Science Associate in Science degree program at Merritt College is to prepare qualified practitioners in the art science of diagnostic medical imaging. Radiologic Technologists manipulate sophisticated technical equipment and computers to obtain detailed images of the human body. These images assist physicians in the diagnosis of injury and disease in the clinical environment.

Imaging science is paying attention to the diagnostic and therapeutic application of the imaging methods of radiology and also nuclear medicine. Imaging is cooperating with other basic medicine disciplines very closely. The absolvent of the doctor studying program imaging science in medicine acquires the scientific erudition based on the combination of theoretical study, clinical practice, and scientific work in the concrete scientific-research assignment. The theoretical part of the study includes the whole range of the discipline (the insolvent reaches detailed knowledge of the problems related to the dissertation work and knowledge of the other parts of radiology on the level of the specialization examination at a minimum). Theoretical education is completed with mandatory and voluntary specialized courses and research fellowships. The clinical part is done at the imaging department according to the topic of the dissertation work. The scientific-research part is based on the solving of the concrete assignment and on the publication of the research results. During the completing the research assignment, the absolvent is learned to work indecently on a scientific project, to create theses, to study literature, to verify hypotheses on the selected sample, to interpret results, and to publish them in scientific journals and during congresses. The study is finished by the state examination and the defense of the dissertation work. The successful absolvent reaches the scientific degree of Ph.D., Study program without specialization.
