The Training Centre of Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering of the University of Tartu (TÜ BMTK) has been established in 1996 to promote academic and continuing education in medical physics and biomedical engineering. The main objectives of the centre are:
• to provide clinical technologists (medical physicists, engineers, technicians) as well as medical practitioners with hands-on training in the usage, service and quality assurance of modern medical equipment;
• to provide students and researchers from UT and other universities with the facilities and labs for studies and research in medical physics and biomedical engineering.
The maximum program task of the Centre is connected with the reconstruction of a special area for hands-on training workshops and classrooms.

At the moment BMTK is providing X-ray equipment quality and safety measurement service to Estonian health care institutions. BMTK has participated in designing legislation connected with the classification, conformity assessment and usage of medical devices through the consultants of the Ministry of Social Affairs.
At BMTK we offer independent technical consulting services for medical device manufacturers and there authorized representatives, who are planning to put there products into the Estonian market.
