- **2020-07** — This course teaches you all about the Physics of Imaging. It's about how x-rays are exactly produced and how they interact with matter. It also teaches you the basics about radioactivity. Nonetheless, the prerequisite (Physics 205) does not teach you anything about what you take in this course. The courses that we took in Physics 205 had little to no relevancy whatsoever to the course.
