Semester Hours: 3 | Lecture Hours: 3 | Laboratory Hours: 0 A comprehensive study of the physical principles associated with nuclear medicine and allied health physics. Identify atomic and nuclear structure; describe energy relationships; distinguish radioactivity as a consequence of nuclear instabilities, decay modes, radiations emitted, and interactions with matter; utilize mathematics for calculation of radioactivity and photon attenuation in matter; analyze statistical analyses related to nuclear medicine physics; and solve problems dealing with topics
such as force, work, energy, frequency, and wave length. Required Prerequisite(s):SCIT 1320
