EFOMP, in collaboration with the Czech Association of Medical Physicists (CAMP) and the Department of Dosimetry and Application of Ionizing Radiation of the Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague invite you to the next ESMPE on 13th-15th July 2023.
The school will be aimed at different aspects of Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT), from basics to treatment imaging and planning to motion management, quality assurance and image guidance. Moreover, it will cover current hot topics, such as Cardiac SBRT (radioablation) and FLASH. And finally, attendees should get to know what the role of medical physicists in clinical SBRT trials is.
This two-and-a-half day event is intended for practicing clinical Medical Physicists who are involved in SBRT and is accredited by EBAMP (European Board of Accreditation for Medical Physics) as a CPD event for Medical Physicists at EQF Level 8. The event has been judged to have 15 hours of educational experience, which, according to the EBAMP protocol is equivalent to 23 CPD points. As in past school editions, there will be an optional examination at the end for those seeking a higher level of certification beyond attendance. Attendees who also successfully pass the exam obtain an extra 8 CPD points for a total of 31 CPD points.
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.
Please note: All times shown are in CET
