Therapeutic Technology
FEKT-MPC-TERAcad. year: 2024/2025
The course deals with principle and use of ultrasound, ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, lasers, accelerated electrons and protons. Ultrasound surgery, hf-hyperthermia and radiofrequency ablation, radiotherapy with accelerated electrons and protons, ESWL and PEK are discussed. Furthermore the application of lasers in medicine, cardiopulmonary and renal extracorporeal blood circulation, interventional cardiology systems, ventilation and anesthesiology systems, defibrillators, organ replacements, prostheses and operating robot are discussed as well as biochemical and immunological laboratory systems.
