The state of medical physics in Brazil demonstrated by research groups publications: an analytical example of bibliometrics used to investigate a scientific field | O estado da física médica no Brasil por meio das publicações de grupos de pesquisa: um exemplo analítico do uso da bibliometria para investigar um campo científico

SUMMARY

RESUMO Este artigo aborda a condição de construção paradoxal do campo da Física Médica (FM) no Brasil através da análise de sua produção científica. Portanto, o objetivo é levantar o estado da arte da FM brasileira e a metodologia foi baseada em ferramentas de webscrapping e análise quantitativa e qualitativa para coletar e analisar dados em bancos de dados públicos e abertos que são referência em divulgação e comunicação tecnocientífica. Os resultados apontam para o fato de que as áreas da medicina e da física produziram em sua sobreposição um campo cujo conhecimento não necessariamente contribui para a consolidação de um suposto campo ou área independente da FM.Palavras-chave: Física Médica: Educação Superior; Grupos de Pesquisa; Bibliometria.ABSTRACT This paper addresses the paradoxical construction condition of the Medical Physics (MP) field in Brazil through an analysis of scientific production. Therefore, the objective is to understand the state of art of Brazilian MP and the methodology was based on webscrapping and quantitative and qualitative analysis tools to collect and analyze data in public and open database that are reference in dissemination and technoscientific communication. The results point to the fact that the areas of medicine and physics produced in their overlap a field whose knowledge does not necessarily contribute to the consolidation of a supposed field or area independent of MP.Keywords: Medical Physics; Higher Education; Research Groups, Bibliometrics.
