Dear colleagues,
 

Please find the link to the 2nd ECMP2020 newsletter and the following message from ECMP2020 President Mika Kortesniemi:

 

Dear NMO / Dear President,

 

I am contacting you in my role as President of the 3rd European Congress of Medical Physics – ECMP 2020 – which, as you know, will take place in Torino, Italy, 24th-26th September this year. I would be very grateful for your help in publicising the congress, and especially the upcoming deadline for abstract submission (10th March).
 
The Scientific Committee and Congress Planning Committee has proceeded with the programme planning and preparations with the Local Organizing Committee. The final programme is almost ready and is updated regularly on the ECMP web pages: http://www.ecmp2020.org
 
The programme of ECMP 2020 will cover the most recent technological advancements from all fields of medical physics. Immediately before the congress, on Wednesday 23rd September 2020, the pre-congress ESMPE satellites will provide medical physicists with full-day training on Patient Specific QA in Radiotherapy, Nuclear Medicine Dosimetry, and Artificial Intelligence.
 
The congress itself will include an inspiring set of 12 Refresher Courses with 24 lectures, 32 Scientific Sessions with 20 keynote talks, 10 Joint Sessions with more than 30 invited talks, 2 Special Focus Sessions, and ECMP Welcomes Spain Sessions. The titles span all core knowledge areas of medical physics and reach the fastest developing areas such as proton therapy, molecular, x-ray and hybrid imaging with new detectors, radiomics and deep learning. The main plenary session will be presenting the clinical data driven future in medical physics.
 
Now it is time to act on abstract submission, which is open and running until 10th March 2020. The link to abstract submission and registration is here: http://www.ecmp2020.org/#registration
 
I would ask you to spread the word to your colleagues and members of your national organisations!
 
Be part of the spirit of ECMP - Embracing change, sharing knowledge!
 
Best regards,
 
Mika Kortesniemi
President of ECMP 2020
