| I.C. Information technology, statistics and physics applied to radiological sciences
(objectives)
It is an essential objective of the Medical Statistics Applied to radiological sciences module to learn the knowledge of the essential elements of medical statistics which include: parameters for descriptive analysis (average, median, fashion and frequency measurement of the distribution of categorical variables), parameters for the analysis of variability (variance , standard deviation and confidence intervals) and elements of inferential statistics (use and interpretation of the most common statistical tests), introduction to regression techniques. The module of Information Technology applied to Radiological Sciences aims to provide the student with the skills necessary to understand the key role that Information Technology (IT) plays for today's society and, in particular, in the technical-health professions.The module of Data processing and storage intends to provide students with the basic knowledge to understand the role of Information Systems and their lifecycle, specifically focusing on database management systems. The aim of the Basic Physics and Radiation Physics module within the integrated course of Computer Science, Statistics and Physics applied to Radiological Sciences is to provide students with the knowledge on the foundations of applied physics necessary for the performance of their future activity. In particular, the understanding of the physical principles underlying medical physics and the functioning of medical instrumentation will be addressed. At the end of the module, students will know the fundamental concepts of application of the scientific method to the study of biomedical phenomena (choice and measurement of parameters, evaluation of errors), they will be able to describe the physical phenomena of complex systems using appropriate mathematical tools, they will know the scientific bases of medical procedures and the operating principles of equipment commonly used for diagnostics and therapy.
