Dear future colleagues, students of the Radiological Sciences program, my fellow faculty members, and esteemed visitors of the page,
I am pleased to welcome you to the Radiological Sciences program. Radiological imaging is one of the core professions in healthcare, requiring significant technological expertise and knowledge of various medical imaging techniques, especially with the advent of modern technologies.
The Department of Radiological Sciences is that branch of medical sciences concerned with the use of X-rays, gamma rays, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing and treating diseases. The Radiological Sciences program aims to prepare students with the necessary scientific fundamentals, educational background, and skills to practice successfully in the field of radiological sciences. It trains them in diagnostic radiographic imaging, nuclear medicine, ultrasound, MRI, computed tomography (CT), and radiation therapy in the radiology and medical imaging departments of hospitals. The department’s educational programs include courses in anatomy, tissues, physiology, pathology, medical foundations, medical computer applications, radiation physics, applied physics in medical technology, and radiological and medical imaging sciences.
