| AN
ADVANCED SHORT TERM COURSE
|
ON |
| INDUSTRIAL
AND MEDICAL APPLICATION OF X-RAYS
|
23rd
- 27th APRIL, 2007 |
|
|
| |
 |
| X-rays
has been extensively used in the industries and medicals
since its discovery. As time goes new technology adds many
new application oriented findings, which are the findings
of the dedicated researchers all over the globe. Since we
are now in the era of advanced technology, it is felt that,
the users those who directly involved in contributing substantially
in controlling the quality of the materials produced from
the industries or the experts who diagnose the diseases
using those techniques, should be educated enough to take
advantage of these newly developed techniques. Keeping that
in view, this short term course has been designed to educate
personnel from industries, hospitals, institutes, universities
and R&D organizations. |
| |
| SCOPE OF THE COURSE |
 |
| The course has been structured
to blend the fundamental concepts and methodologies with advanced
innovative techniques for upgrading the knowledge of the personalities
responsible for controlling the quality of life and materials.
The most advanced techniques like XRD[both qualitative and
quantitative analysis(including REITVELD analysis)], SAXS,
GISAXS, PIXE, EDX, radiography, radiotherapy, CT scanning
etc. are included in the course with special emphasis on industrial
and medical applications. Besides class room teaching there
are also laboratory demonstrations and on site demonstrations
are the important features of the course. |
|
| It is expected that the participants
from academic institutions, R&D organizations as well
as professional engineers will be highly benefited by the
course. |
