Highlights of the 65th Annual Meeting of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine
The 65th annual meeting of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine took place in July 2023 with a theme of “The Art of Science, The Science of Care.” We review a sample of the more than 1000 talks and 1600 posters, focusing on a few topics of interest. Recent legislative changes across the country regarding reproductive health care have led to questions about how these regulations may affect your practice. A fantastic multidisciplinary session addressed these issues with experts in the areas of legal, administration, physics, and medicine. Both the scientific sessions and vendor hall displayed a multitude of artificial intelligence-based solutions. Presenters from academia and industry discussed the latest technological advancements, along with the potential challenges of evaluating, implementing, and maintaining this new technology. Advancements in artificial intelligence have reduced the time required to contour and compute new plans, allowing adaptive radiation therapy (ART) to become mainstream. ART-specific treatment platforms, such as MR linacs and Ethos, streamline the ART workflow and make it accessible to most clinics. Presenters discussed the latest clinical applications of ART, and shared their experience with the workflows, commissioning, and training that has worked in their clinics. We hope this snapshot of American Association of Physicists in Medicine 2023 has piqued your interest and we will see you in Los Angeles in 2024.
期刊介绍:
The overarching mission of Practical Radiation Oncology is to improve the quality of radiation oncology practice. PRO''s purpose is to document the state of current practice, providing background for those in training and continuing education for practitioners, through discussion and illustration of new techniques, evaluation of current practices, and publication of case reports. PRO strives to provide its readers content that emphasizes knowledge "with a purpose." The content of PRO includes:
Original articles focusing on patient safety, quality measurement, or quality improvement initiatives
Original articles focusing on imaging, contouring, target delineation, simulation, treatment planning, immobilization, organ motion, and other practical issues
ASTRO guidelines, position papers, and consensus statements
Essays that highlight enriching personal experiences in caring for cancer patients and their families.
