Principles of radiation protection, justification, optimization, dose limitation and source security, classification of workplaces, classification of radiation workers, ionizing radiation sources, definition of monitored and controlled zones 4. Method of patient protection, principle of optimization and its application in practice 5. Indication criteria, diagnostic reference levels, dose optimization limits, influence of technical parameters of IRR on patient dose, procedures for determining doses of patients and workers, National Radiological Standards. 6. Tests of ionizing radiation sources (acceptance, long-term stability, operational stability), clinical audits, specific requirements for ionizing radiation sources used for medical irradiation. 7. Fundamentals of atomic and nuclear physics, types of radiation, especially the interaction of IR with living matter, deterministic biological effects (tissue reactions), stochastic, assessment of health consequences, health damage. 8. Methods of detection and methods of measurement of ionizing radiation, quantities and units used in dosimetry and radiation protection. 9. Workplace monitoring, personal monitoring, monitoring of discharges, surroundings, limits for radiation workers, derived and authorized limits, monitoring levels. Monitoring program. 10. Radioactive substance, closed and open radionuclide source, criteria for exemption of ionizing radiation sources from regulation, transfer, disposal of ionizing radiation sources, release of radionuclides into the environment, release levels. 11. IZ as a risk factor of working conditions, assessment of health risks, health care system for persons professionally irradiated (occupational medical services), for persons irradiated during radiation emergencies, or representative person, method of their determination. 12. Radiation emergencies, types of contamination, decontamination procedures. 13. Response preparedness and response to a radiation emergency, Internal emergency plan, External emergency plan, National radiation emergency plan. 14. Limitation of exposure, methods of protection against ionizing radiation, calculation of shielding. 15. Training within the scope of Section 50, paragraph 1 of Decree No. 422/2016 Coll., on radiation protection for entry into the controlled zone of the RDG workplace, NM and RT workplace, as a student preparing for their profession - obtaining a document that can be used at the workplace during practice and preparation for the profession.
