D.9. Key Learning Outcomes

1. Know the biological effects of radiation and principles of radiation protection.

2. Know radioactive substances and their properties. Uses this information in the development of new radiopharmaceuticals.

3. Know the biodistribution of radiopharmaceuticals after administration to the body, the factor that may alter the biodistribution, their localization and uptake mechanism into cells, mechanisms of action, undesirable effects, and interactions with drugs.

4. Design a new radiopharmaceutical, plans and carries out studies on its formulation, production, stability and quality assurance. Use the field-specific devices effectively during studies.

5. Know the effect of the radiation on pharmaceutics, cosmetics, active ingredients, drug delivery systems, and medical devices. Know how to control/prevent the probable variations.

6. Improve a novel idea, method, design and/or application in the field of Radiopharmacy or apply a known idea, method, design and/or application in that field or in a different field.

7. Perform a research/experimental design using current resources and perform a study, analyze the data, annotate the results. Publish the results in a national/international journal and share in scientific meetings.

8. Integrate and improve the theoretical and practical knowledge with the knowledge from different disciplines.

9. Perform the studies in the frame of ethical principles.
