| Popis: | The first X-ray equipment was built and X-rays were produced in the University of Tartu (UT) in early 1896, just months after W. C. Röntgen’s discovery. Quite soon the invention was taken into use in diagnostic medicine. It was the beginning of the development and application of medical physics in Estonian hospitals. In the 1920s X-ray equipment was built for clinical use in the Tartu University Hospital. The first special curriculum for medical physics and biomedical engineering was launched in UT in 1994. The joint curriculum pilot project with Tallinn Technical University lasted from 2009 to 2012, while the joint curriculum has been implemented since 2013. 54 Bachelor’s level, 42 Master’s level and 3 Doctoral students have graduated from the University of Tartu in the field of medical physics and biomedical engineering since 1994. One of the most famous inventions of UT scientists in the field of biomechanics is the myometer invented by Arved Vain. The myometric method and device have been applied in Estonia and many other countries, including in preparing astronauts before space flights and in their rehabilitation after landing.
