EFOMP in collaboration with the Czech Association of Medical Physics (CAMP) would like to invite you to the next ESMPE on 8th-10th February 2024.
The school will be aimed at advanced tasks connected with the use of uncertainty analyses and statistical methods in data handling and interpretation. The school will cover the methods of inferential statistics most frequently used in the medical field in the first day, and the treatment of errors an uncertainties in medical imaging, radiation dosimetry, radiomics and epidemiology in the following days. The focus will be on worked examples.
This two-and-half day event will be accredited by EBAMP (European Board of Accreditation for Medical Physics) and is intended for practicing clinical Medical Physicists who are involved in data management and research. There will be an optional examination at the end for those seeking a higher level of certification beyond attendance.
ESMPE have decided this event will be in a hybrid format. All lecturers will give their talks on-site in Prague but participants can choose if they want to attend the school on-site (limited number of participants) or online, it will be live-streamed.

EFOMP in collaboration with the Hellenic Association of Medical Physics (HAMP) and the 2nd Department of Radiology, Medical School, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens would like to invite you to the next ESMPE on 13th-15th October 2022.
The school will be aimed at advanced tasks connected with the use of statistical methods in data handling and interpretation. The school will cover the methods of inferential statistics most frequently used in the medical field, the statistical methods used in radiomics, the treatment of errors an uncertainties in radiation dosimetry. This course is designed to be accessible to all medical physicists including students and those working in clinical environments and are involved in data management and research.
This two-day event has been accredited by EBAMP (European Board of Accreditation for Medical Physics) as a CPD event for Medical Physicists at EQF Level 8 and awarded 39 CPD credit points (33 CPD credit points for those who do not sit for or do not pass the examination). As in past school editions, there will be an optional examination at the end for those seeking a higher level of certification beyond attendance.
ESMPE have decided this event will be in a hybrid format. Participants will be on-site in Athens where possible, but the school will also be live-streamed so participants can join live online if they cannot travel to the venue. Please note: All times shown are in Greek time (CET+1h).
Organisers: Brendan McClean (Chair of the School), Marco Brambilla (Scientific Chair), Efi Koutsouveli, Pola Platoni (HAMP)
The school will be aimed at advanced tasks connected with the application of statistics in Medical Physics.
This one day satellite meeting will be held in conjunction with the 2nd European Congress of Medical Physics and will cover the methods most frequently used in medical statistics.
The event will be accredited by EBAMP (European Board for Accreditation in Medical Physics) and is intended for practising clinical Medical Physicists who are involved in data management and research.
EFOMP and ESMPE hugely wish to thank all the speakers who have dedicated and shared some of their valuable and precious time to the success of this experience for the benefit and professional growth of our MPE Community. We look forward to welcoming them again.
