Workshops and closing meeting of the IAEA TC POL9027 project – important news

On December 2-4, 2024, a workshop entitled “Quantification in hybrid imaging” will be held in
conjunction with the closing meeting of the IAEA TC POL9027 project.
The meeting aims to officially close the project POL9027 “Enhancing the Capabilities of Positron
Emission Tomography Departments to Provide High Quality Imaging and Therapies to Promote Safety
Culture“ implemented of technical cooperation of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA TC).


The event (3 days), promoting good practices in the field of safety of patients exposed to ionising
radiation, is addressed to all specialists, including physicians, interested in quality control issues in
nuclear medicine facilities using PET. The issues discussed will be presented by experts from Poland
and abroad (IAEA). The discussion will focus on the workshop conducted and issues related to hybrid
imaging in nuclear medicine.


Meeting programme: here


Participation in the event and certificate:
People registered for the event and participating in both the symposium and the workshops will receive
a certificate of participation.

Lecture on the IAEA POL9028 project during the 18th Congress of the Polish Society of Medical Physics (PTFM) – report

During the 18th Congress of the Polish Society of Medical Physics (PTFM), on September 20, 2024, Dariusz Kluszczyński, Director of the National Centre for Radiation Protection in Health Care gave a lecture entitled “IAEA Technical Cooperation Programme for 2024-2025 – Project POL9028”. The presentation concerned the description of the project, assumed goals, discussion of activities, budget of the project and cooperation with organizations such as PTFM.

Project IAEA TC POL9028: “Preventing tissue reactions in interventional procedures”  is implemented by the National Centre for Radiation Protection in Health Care as part of the Technical Cooperation Programme of the International Atomic Energy Agency for 2024-2025 (IAEA Technical Cooperation Programme 2024-2025) and aims to raise awareness among personnel involved in IR by promoting procedures where the patient’s radiation protection is part of good medical practice.

The 18th Congress of the Polish Society of Medical Physics (PTFM) took place in Poznań, on September 19-21, 2024, under the slogan: “Medical physicist. Redefinition of the concept. Are we sure?”. This is a key event for people associated with the Society, and is organized every two years in cooperation with the best national clinical and scientific centers, and this year it was held under the honorary patronage of the National Centre for Radiation Protection in Health Care. The aim of the Congress was, among others, to present the latest knowledge and achievements and to exchange experiences regarding the development of medical physics, in particular new diagnostic and therapeutic methods. The topics covered issues in the field of radiotherapy, medical imaging, nuclear medicine, radiation protection, theranostics, biosignals and nanotechnology. The event gathered 240 participants.


EU publication “Medical Applications of Ionising Radiation for Better Patients’ Lives: a European Research Roadmap”

The European Union has published the Medical Applications of Ionising Radiation for Better Patients’ Lives: a European Research Roadmap, a major outcome of the Euratom Horizon 2020 EURAMED rocc-n-roll project that also builds on the challenges and research needs identified in its Strategic Research Agenda (SRA).

Based on a patient-centric approach, the roadmap presents 8 potential breakthroughs that may significantly impact medical applications of ionising radiation in relation to patients’ life expectancy and quality of life, radiation protection and healthcare systems.

The vision of this roadmap is to provide guidance to European policymakers, funders, and the scientific and clinical communities regarding priority research, infrastructure development, and education and training actions related to medical applications of ionising radiation.

The publication is available on the EU website: Medical applications of ionising radiation for better patients’ lives – Publications Office of the EU (europa.eu)
