The Division of Medical Physics comprises clinical and research scientists with technical expertise spanning computed tomography (CT), radiation oncology, nuclear medicine, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The division's team members collaborate with radiologists and techologists across the department on optimizing clinical protocols while ensuring patient safety across all imaging modalities.
To ensure efficient and effective clinical operations, the division is responsible for routine quality assurance and safety monitoring across all modalities as well as maintaining compliance with regulatory bodies.
The Division of Medical Physics also actively conducts and supports modality research and quality improvement projects in collaboration with other clinical and research faculty across the Emory School of Medicine.
The division contributes to the department's educational mission in several ways. The Medical Physics Residency program trains the next generation of medical physicists, while the division also optimizes the technical expertise of technologists and clinical faculty through formal and informal professional development and training activities.
