Modern imaging methods find their application in practically all areas of medicine, especially in the diagnostic process, doctors use CT (computed tomography), MR (magnetic resonance imaging), ultrasound or hybrid imaging methods with positron emission tomography (PET / CT and PET / MR) . Therapeutic use includes e.g. interventional radiology, or administration of radioactive substances for the actual treatment of eg cancer.
Doctoral study program includes theoretical education, clinical work and solving a particular research project. The theoretical part includes the entire width of the field and is supplemented by the mandatory and optional specialized courses. The clinical part is performed on radiological or nuclear medicine or hybrid imaging workplace with regard to the thesis topic. The research part includes solving of a specific research project according to the study program, and publication of its results. The study is completed with the state examination and the thesis defense. Successful graduate will receive a scientific degree of Ph.D.
