SUMMARY:Radiation Protection in Medicine - Achieving Change in Practice
DESCRIPTION:The conference is directed at a wide audience with an interest in radiation protection in medicine.\nIn particular:\n• Health professionals\, e.g. physicians practising in radiological imaging\, nuclear medicine and radiotherapy; referring medical practitioners.\n• Medical physicists\, radiographers and technologists; radiation protection professionals and engineers.\n• Healthcare managers\, health economists and risk communication experts.\n• Representatives of patient organizations and manufacturers; health researchers and academics.\n• Representatives of health authorities and regulatory authorities with a special responsibility in this field. \n  \nThe main purpose of the conference is to take stock of the progress made following the Bonn Call for Action and thus assess impact. The coverage includes optimization and justification in medical exposure; safety in medical use of ionizing radiation; and also radiation protection of medical staff and public\, when ionizing radiation is used for diagnosis\, intervention\, therapy or research. There should be input from multiple health professions using or prescribing ionizing radiation\, such as all relevant groups of physicians\, medical physicists\, radiographers\, nurses\, engineers\, as well as from patients\, regulatory authorities\, health service managements\, health authorities and policy-makers.\nPreliminary list of topics \n\nActivities relating to the Bonn Call for Action\, and their impact\nJustification in the use of radiation in medicine\nRadiation protection of patients and staff in diagnostic radiography\, fluoroscopy and CT\nRadiation protection in mammography\, dental and maxillofacial imaging and other diagnostic modalities\nRadiation protection of patients and staff in interventional procedures\nRadiation protection in medical exposures of children and pregnant women\nRadiation protection of patients and staff in radiotherapy including brachytherapy\nLearning from unintended and accidental exposures in medicine\nRadiation protection of patients\, staff and the public in diagnostic and therapeutic nuclear medicine and hybrid imaging\nHow are we strengthening radiation safety culture in healthcare?\nHow are we fostering and improving the radiation benefit/risk dialogue?\nHow are we meeting radiation protection challenges in design and implementation of new medical technologies?\nHow are we meeting challenges in patient dose recording\, tracking and data management?\nRegional radiation safety campaigns\nTopics for future research and development in medical radiation protection
