Very useful to learn some more about how radiotherapy works and a good reminder of radionuclides and their use in medicine

I got very well knowledge about particles accelerators ,thank you coursera

There were a lot of errors in the lecture transcripts, and the lecturer's accent was so pronounced that correct transcripts would have been useful for anyone, let alone for someone who needs to rely solely on the transcript. Someone only reading might end up wondering what saxophones have to do with treatment rooms, and what on Earth is prime stalin dose profile... The solutions to the quiz questions were not obtainable from the course materials in many cases, especially the ones with calculations, and while they were mostly basic, to be frank I find it subpar course design to not make sure the material matches to the questions, without making it clear that the course requires the student to find information outside of the course material. The graded quizzes were identical to the practice quizzes, which makes them mindless repetition. Also, because the questions were vague in many cases, it would have been easier to do the practice quizzes with trial and error (unlimited tries) than finding out by googling what the question is about (the English of the questions wasn't always too easy to interpret).

This course is very useful to everyone. I have to learn some different techniques, like homiao therapy, chemotherapy ect....

Very nice course. It give me a clean overview of such interesting and challenging topic. Paolo

If you want to delve in the medical aspect of physics, i would recommend this course to you

The contents were good, the quizzes were decent and no disrespect to the professor who taught us, but I felt that he was very robotic and monotonous. the concepts weren't very well explained sometimes (especially in week 3) or maybe it was just hard for me.

The lecturer was extremely bland and made it a relatively boring lecture

It is my 3rd course with Coursera. I really enjoyed the first 2, but this one I must say I am disappointed. The oral expression of the speaker is not very good in english, there are errors in subtitles and sometimes inaccuracies in the statement.

The pronunciation was really bad and there were a lot of grammatical errors in both videos and readings.

Dear Sir,

I wish to apply for financial aid to allow me to enroll into for Coursera course: Medical Applications of Particle Accelerators (NPAP MOOC) organized by Lund University. i have completed the Course and i have not able to get certificate of completion.

Am presently final year Undergraduate students of biomedical engineering? Am not employed yet, so I could not be able avoid to pay for online certification verification though Coursera. I wish to apply for financial aid to enable me further this courses which will offer me opportunity to have access to the full course as well as certificate of participation after competition. 

Above all, I will be very glad if my financial aid can be granted for me to have opportunity to enroll into this said program at free cost, in order to enable me acquire more knowledge in the area used in Medical Applications of Particle Accelerators (NPAP MOOC) used in programs for Biomedical imaging such as MRI, CT scan, and other image modalities using Medical Applications of Particle Accelerators (NPAP MOOC) and other various treatment available . Waiting to see positive feedback and to commence the program as soon as possible.

Thank you SIR.

I am very grateful to be able to do this course with you. There are really few places where they teach and you can learn about a subject as exceptional as the medical application of particle accelerators. As a medical physicist, it has been a great help to me to strengthen already acquired knowledge and to learn new things. The videos and articles you have been exceptional. The way they teach is very good and Professor Lars Hjorth Præstegaard explains excellent, he is a great physicist. Once again thank you very much. Totally recommended.

It has been the best introductory course on Advanced Radiation Therapy, where it also introduces us to proton and heavy ion therapies in an easy and entertaining way. Simply incredible my experience in this brilliant and fascinating course. I want to go deeper with you. Thank you very much and a big hug from the Alto Hospicio Hospital, North of Chile.

El conocimiento adquirido en este curso fue de mucho provecho para mi, ya que pude mejorar mis conocimiento en el área de radioterapia para haces de fotones y electrones. Ademas, adquirir conocimiento en radioterapia para haces de protones e iones pesado. por ultimo, aprendí sobre las aplicaciones y produción de radionúcleidos.

Muchas gracias

This course is an excellent introductory to accelerator-based radiotherapy techniques used in cancer treatment. I am looking forward to involving an additional technique that is related to this category of cancer cures, which is the accelerator-based Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT).

This course helped me a lot as I am goingo to study a master in medical physcis. Now I have gain habilities that I can put into practise in the master. Thank you to the professor and to coursera for sharing the knowledge

I strongly recommend the course for many different professionals , students who work in Medical Physics field or have intention to work in this field. Also for the fellow colleagues who need replenish their knowledge.

Very detailed course on Medical Applications of Particle Accelerators. I am highly grateful to Prof. Lars Hjorth for his continued support. I have thoroughly understood the concepts pertained to particle accelerators.

Thank you for this introductory overview. It has been a great tool to revise my existing knowledge ( diagnostic imaging) and to learn something about the hardware, physics and radiopharmacy of radiation oncology.

My ambition is to become a medical physicist and Coursera helped me a lot to finish the course with certificate ,teaching was also awesome and satisfying,hoping to do another course and to learn the unknown.
