Medical biophysics provides students physical literacy by which they would acquire physical knowledge about the functions of human body both in health, and in disease. Educate students in preventing damage to the organism caused by adverse effects of physical factors or specifically eliminating them. Allow students to acquire theoretical knowledge during the effective use of diagnostic and therapeutic methods in medicine.

Skills: Ability and skills to use diagnostic and therapeutic methods in medicine. Apply knowledge in practice in health protection from physical factors (radiation) and their minimalization.
