Addressing the Knowledge Gap in Magnetic Resonance Imaging Physics in Türkiye: A Transcontinental Continuing Educational Initiative by the Turkish Medical Physics Association
This virtual course addressed critical training gaps in MRI physics among Türkiye's medical physics workforce. The initiative offers a scalable and adaptable model for professional development in contexts where access to imaging technology has outstripped training. By linking technical education to clinical application, the program reinforces the importance of human capital in realizing the full potential of MRI in therapeutic settings.
