The European School for Medical Physics Experts will organise three school editions in 2023

The EFOMP’s European School for Medical Physics Expert (ESMPE) in order to support education and training programmes for Medical Physicists will organise three school editions in 2023 in collaboration with COCIR. ESMPE courses are accredited by EBAMP (European Board for Accreditation in Medical Physics) as a CPD event for Medical Physicists at EQF level 8.

EFOMP SCHOOL 2023 programmes

All lecturers will give their talks on-site but participants can choose if they want to attend the schools on-site (limited number of participants) or online as courses will be live-streamed.

1. Computed Tomography (Prague, Czech Republic, 26th-28th January 2023)

EFOMP, in collaboration with the Czech Association of Medical Physicists and the Department of Dosimetry and Application of Ionizing Radiation of Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague invite you to the next ESMPE in Computed Tomography.

This school is aimed at different aspects of CT imaging, from the basics to advanced level in different areas. Moreover, it will cover current hot topics, such as lung cancer screening and photon-counting CT.

Registration for Computed Tomography school is open!

2. Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (Prague, Czech Republic, 13th-15th July 2023)

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 ESMPE in Stereotactic body Radiotherapy.

This 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 (radio-ablation) and FLASH. And finally, attendees should get to know what the role of medical physicists in clinical SBRT.

3. Artificial Intelligence in Medical Physics (online course from December 2022 and face to face October 2023)

EFOMP would like to invite you to the next ESMPE in AI in medical physics. The school will be organized as pre-course in remote with self-training (AI course part 1) plus a 2.5 days face to face meeting (advanced AI course part 2, which will be held in October 2023). The online course is preparatory to the AI part 2 course. Participation in the part 2 course requires that you have taken (self-study) the online course. The school will be focused on the medical physics aspects of artificial intelligence and will be aimed at presenting the background, practical methodology, state-of-the-art and future developments of AI. This course (remote self-training and evaluation) is intended for medical physicists who wish to expand their knowledge in artificial intelligence. Certificates of attendance will be issued to those who attend the whole course (part 1 and part 2).
