Abstract: |
| |
Yugoslav Society for Biomedical Engineering and Medical Physics (YUBEMP) is the only national society that coordinates education with professional activities and public promotion of medical physics (MP) in Yugoslavia. YUBEMP's program, created in collaboration with other professional societies, institutions and universities, is directed to synchronize actions in the field of MP. The current state in Yugoslavia is evaluated according to the existing university curricula as well as to the current state of education of physicists employed in hospital. The role of national society in further improvement of basic, postgraduate and additional education in medical physics was pointed out according to the evident interest for education expressed during the last decade. It was concluded that the most efficient way of achieving this could be to strengthen the cooperation among national societies, universities and other authorities with the aim to induce a reaction to refresh the existing programs and to add new subjects, analogous to the recent improvements in the developed countries. |
