As a profession, medical physics combines an advanced understanding of physics and math with knowledge of biology, anatomy and physiology. Consequently, rigorous education and training is required to assure that medical physicists have the requisite fundamental knowledge, specialized technical skills, and clinical understanding to contribute to the medical care of patients safely. There is, therefore, an interest in standardizing the educational pathways and in developing mechanisms to assure that competency is achieved and maintained. Throughout the world, several countries, regions, and prof...
