Medical physics education for radiological technology students, medical students and dental students were discussed with the bases of reports by 6 speakers at the symposium entitled “Medical Physics EducationPresent State and for Future Development”, held on 29th of June,1990, as a part of “The 7th Meeting of Japanese Association of Medical Physics”.
Physics has been less welcomed by high school students. This fact and inn ovations introduced to medicine demand our efforts to prepare more attractive teaching material of medical physics for medical students.
The guidelines of national examinations for the license of dental practice, and also for radiological technologists, specified in detail, tend to make radiological physics teaching stiff and fo rmal. Considerations of not making the lecture be just for the national examinations are important.
The Department of Medical Physics has not been juxtaposed in any Japanese university hospitals. Medical Physicist is not an identified profession in Japan. Few post graduate educational programs of Medical Physics have been developed in Japan. These situations must be improved.
