不要盲目地为一些很偏的小专业一时的短缺所迷惑。

我不了解MEDICAL PHYSICS。 但是我知道 RADIATION ONCOLOGY。
在大的医学中心里,RADIATION ONCOLOGIST (MD) 看病人, 确定治疗方案,
然后MEDICAL PHYSICIST 计算剂量给射线方式等等具体的治疗细节。

RADIATION ONCOLOGIST 这个小专业在过去十年里是大起大伏, 现是工作非常难找, 搞
得大家纷纷转行, 最近又十分短缺,变得非常热门。

我觉得MEDICAL PHYSICIST 的工作1恐怕和RADIATION ONCOLOGIST 的工作是相关的。

这么狭窄的领域,入门前一定要三思。

nod,说的很对
多做research是很有必要的
radiation oncology的确和medical physicist相关
但是其实只有一小部分的medical physicist毕业的人,才能去医院的
A limited number of students prepare for employment as hospital-based medic
al physicists through a program that includes opportunities for course work,
laboratories, and directed study to provide experience in areas such as pur
chase specification, acceptance testing, quality assurance, and radiation sa
fety. The majority of students prepare for research careers in the basic sci
ences.

大部分的都是搞科研的
根据另外一段话
medical physicist最大的两个雇主是大学和医院,工业界,政府等提供
少量的就业机会

把两段话,总结一下,也许就是medical physicist 头大雇主应该是大学和学术研究机构

当然不少文章也说了,对medical physicist的供求关系已经失衡很多年了
这个失衡尤其体现在医院这快上面
好像并非想radiation oncology那样起落明显
不过medical physics应该算是一个比较新的领域
那个ppf说的考试好像是从96年才开始的


不过这里,我再举一组数据
比如属于medical physicist的MRI physicists
根据AAPM的数据,十台MRI才产生一个MRI 的full time job
根据96年的数据,美国共有4000多台MRI,那么也就是只需要400个MRI physicists
在96年的时候,美国一共有1500多个MRI physicists
那么就意味着剩下来的1100多个人大都必须依靠科研funding养活


又根据DOL的数据
说是2000年
Radiologic technologists and technicians held about 167,000 jobs in 2000. A
bout 1 in 5 worked part time. More than half of all jobs are in hospitals. M
ost of the rest are in physicians' offices and clinics, including diagnostic
imaging centers.
不过这里的radiologic tech,一般只需要专科或者本科degree 加一个certificate
就可以从业了,和medical physicist应该不是一个层面上的工作
虽然也操作MRI,CT等东东


可惜的是DOL上面没有medical physicist这个职业
所以没有相关数据

另外phyisical的job market已经tight n多年了
其中很多人也分流到了medical physics里面

当然也就是因为job market 不好
读的人少的缘故,还有美国医疗行业的总体发展
导致现在的可能的缺乏

所以对于要转行的人,关键就在于在获取MS后,能否进入residency
我觉得进入residency后,就业的问题应该就不大了,IMHO
学术科研机构肯定不太吸引人,工业界的R&D的开支受到经济影响太大

如果ppf的表姐能来灌水,解解惑就好了



Timing is everything, 看来打网球是这样
人生很多事情都是这样呀

有道理,能仔细说说这段历史么,有什么reference
medical physics的确和radiation oncology是息息相关的
不过相对出路要稍微宽一点,因为它还包括medical imaging
和 nuclear medical instruement developing etc.
这样还可以去一些学校的研究机构和一些公司
不过总的来说是个小领域
以前有相关背景的可以想想,不然是要仔细考虑

I agree.
Don't think it like a nurse job.
And all F-2 jump in.
I think it's better to get a Ph.D
Then even if you can't get job in hospital,
you  can go to UNiv. or research center.

what did they(DOL) say about the nurse job?

hehe,美国本世纪,十大热门抢手人才
不是我瞎说
真的有那么个十大的,DOL自己说的
