All Bulgarian lecturers have got education abroad. 20 books covering all educational modules were published in English. In 1999 the MSc course got 5 years accreditation from the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM), UK, and was approved from EFOMP. Several countries have used our experience for organizing their MSc courses in Medical Physics. Between them are: Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Malaysia, Sudan, Indies, Jamaica, and others. Nowadays the MSc program adapted to the new accreditation requirements is active at the University of Plovdiv “Paisii Hilendarski”.
