The lecture notes from the subject Medical Biophysics provide the students of Dental Medicine with the supporting information on lectured topics, which are dealing with the fundamental physical processes in human body on molecular, atomic and subatomic level. The main focus of the present lecture series set on the physical principles of diagnostic and therapeutic leading-edge medical technology units, as well as on the biophysical effects in human body after application of biophysical techniques. Side effects and safe, efficient usage of medical devices in practice is also described. The subjects of molecular biophysics, membrane biophysics, and bioenergetics are included here as well.
NOTE: The lecture notes do not make the compensation of the literature which is required for the final exam.
Brief outline:
Relation physics and medicine, Structure of matter, Nuclear radiation and its application in medicine, Magnetic resonance imaging, Lasers in medicine, X rays – the nature and physical properties, Conventional radiography and CT, Pulse oximetry, Ultrasound–physical characteristics, Medical application of ultrasound, Disperse system – classification and physical properties, Colligative properties of disperse systems, Transport processes – flow, diffusion, Membrane biophysics, Bioelectricity, Electrical current and tissues, Biophysics of senses, Sound and hearing, Biophysics of vision, Biophysics of cardiovascular system.
