How is Radiation Used to Maintain Human Health?

Ten Ways Physics has Enhanced the Medical Field
As an introduction to this area of study. This page from Canada's Perimeter Institute of Theoretical Physics has some posters outlining how Physics has impacted Medicine. They have a community education/resource site called Inside The Perimeter.
