While this is a well established profession in many countries accross the world, Romania clearly lags behind. It is imperious necessary that the Medical Physicist profession be established properly, from the ground up, that is from the training stages to the practice stages. We provide here a general overview of the Medical Physicist profession (with more emphasis on the Diagnostic and Radiation Therapy branches), while making a humble attempt to outline some of the deficiencies that exist in Romania. It is our hope that this will stimulate and motivate all those concerned to begin a critical analysis of the current status of Medical Physics in Romania, that will lead to the proper establishment of this noble profession – a goal long overdue. }, URL = { http://rpss.inoe.ro/articles/62 }, eprint = { http://rpss.inoe.ro/articles/62/file }, journal = { Revista de Politica Științei și Scientometrie – Serie Nouă } }
