Medical Physicists will contribute to maintaining and improving the quality, safety and cost-effectiveness of healthcare services through patient-oriented activities requiring expert action, involvement or advice regarding the specification, selection, acceptance testing, commissioning, quality assurance/control and optimised clinical use of medical devices and regarding patient risks and protection from associated physical agents (e.g. x-rays, electromagnetic fields, laser light, radionuclides) including the prevention of unintended or accidental exposures; all activities will be based on current best evidence or own scientific research when the available evidence is not sufficient. Medical physics is also called biomedical physics, medical biophysics or applied physics in medicine is, generally speaking, the application of physics concepts, theories and methods to medicine or healthcare. Medical physics departments may be found in hospitals or universities. Medical physics has a much wider scope and may include research in any applications of physics to medicine from the study of biomolecular structure to microscopy and nanomedicine. Insights in Medical Physics is an open access scientifc journal which publishes peer reviewed articles in the area of medical physics. The journal publish articles with theoretical and experimental contributions for publication covering all dimensions of medical physics such as application of radiation physics with relation to radiation therapies, nuclear medicine related physics applications, medical imaging, signal processing and signal output analysis for medical devices, application of physics in biomedical devise development, computer aided image analysis etc. Articles are welcome in the mentioned discipline along with other associated areas of the subject. The Journal is using Editor Manager System for easy online tracking and managing of the manuscript processing.

Medical physics is a hybrid of physics and medicine, and can be considered a lifeline to the human race (excuse the pun) when it comes to the diagnosis and treatment of human diseases. It offers a broad spectrum of career opportunities ranging from clinical activities, to quality assurance, radiation safety, and research – including big data and AI within diagnostic radiology physics, radiation therapy physics, and nuclear medicine physics. Plus, it offers an impressive average salary as well!

It’s important to note that a medical physicist has a very different role to a doctor, but you are still able to make a difference to patients’ lives and that can be a big motivator for medical physicists, much like it is for doctors. However, the job itself doesn’t involve as much day-to-day contact with patients.

Medical physicists aren’t laboratory-bound introverts though either. Whether it’s in a hospital, clinic, or research center, many medical physicists are at the forefront of patient care, helping save lives by ensuring the maintenance of highly sophisticated hospital equipment used in the diagnosis and treatment of patients, or contributing to the research and development of cutting-edge medical treatment and procedures.

Medical Physics and Applied Sciences is a journal published Triannualy in English language. We welcome original research articles, review articles, editorials, case reports, and others from any part of the world. Manuscripts are reviewed by members of the international editorial board and our expert peer reviewers, then either accepted for publication or rejected by the chief editor. Shorter articles are particularly welcome.

Authors are welcome to submit their manuscripts. Submit manuscript at https://www.scholarscentral.org/submission/insights-medical-physics.html (or) as an e-mail attachment to medicalsci@scholarlymed.com or medicalsci@medicinaljournals.com
