The 6th NCS Lustrum, October 5th in Leiden, the Netherlands

Thu, 24/05/2012 - 09:08 — Karen Feyen
When: 
05 Oct 2012

It is our pleasure to invite you to attend the 6th NCS lustrum in Leiden, October the 5th 2012. On September the 3rd, 1982, the Nederlandse Commissie voor stralingsdosimetrie (NCS, Netherlands Commission on Radiation Dosimetry) was established, aiming to promote appropriate use of dosimetry of ionizing radiation, both for scientific and clinical purposes. Over the last thirty years, the NCS has published 21 reports, mostly concerning dosimetry in medicine. These reports have been highly appreciated in the field of radiation dosimetry in Belgium and the Netherlands, but also further abroad.

The Lancet: “The influence of physics on medicine will make healthcare predictive, preventive, and personalized”

Fri, 04/05/2012 - 07:53 — Karen Feyen

A series on medical physics published in The Lancet this week examines the critical contribution made by physics to health - past, present and future, and calls for closer integration of physical and life sciences, greater investment in physics technology and education, a higher profile for physics in medical education, and international harmonization of vocational qualifications.

The EBT film dosimeter meeting at the BHPA meeting in Brussels, February 10th 2012

Tue, 24/04/2012 - 16:29 — Tom Depuydt

During a short 1 hour meeting, about 20 BHPA members had a discussion about their experience with EBT 2/3 film dosimetry. The key ISP developers of EBT film dosimetry, Dr. Lewis and Dr. Micke, and the Belgian distributor Peter Dejonge also participated. Four centers provided some information about their solution and results with EBT2/3 film dosimetry (the presentations can be downloaded below)

discussion of CT protocol with Tom Clarijs (FANC)

Fri, 02/03/2012 - 13:16 — Hilde Bosmans
When: 
30 Mar 2012

Topic: read and comment the draft text of the FANC on acceptability criteria for CT scanners (yearly medical physics test). I will upload the current version of our protocol with adjustments of last week included.

 

I will last minute make a text proposal for the remaining items after having read the EN texts - that I have available now.
