🌍 IDMP 2026 | Advancing Global Health Equity: The Ethical Foundation of Medical Physics

How can medical physics help ensure that advances in radiation medicine reach everyone — safely, equitably, and sustainably?

Join the International Organization for Medical Physics (IOMP) this 5 November 2026 at 12:00 GMT for a special one-hour webinar celebrating the International Day of Medical Physics 2026.

This year’s programme brings together three distinguished speakers exploring health equity from global health, innovation, and professional ethics perspectives:

🔹 Dr. Emilie van Deventer, WHO — Advancing Global Health Equity through Safe and Quality-Assured Radiation Medicine — A WHO Perspective

🔹 Dr. Meaghan Thumath, University of British Columbia — Innovation and Equity in Medical Physics

🔹 Agnette Peralta, Former Assistant Secretary of Health, Philippines — Ethical Principles and Global Health Equity in Medical Physics Practice

Organized by Eva Bezak and Magdalena Stoeva, with IOMP President Eva Bezak serving as moderator.

Medical physics is not only about advancing technology. It is also about ensuring that innovation, safety, quality, and expertise translate into better health outcomes for all.

📅 Thursday, 6 November 2026
🕛 12:00 GMT
⏱ 1 hour

Join the global medical physics community as we reflect on our profession’s responsibility — and opportunity — to advance health equity worldwide.

☢️ A nuclear medicine facility is much more than equipment in a room.

Long before the first patient is scanned, there is an entire roadmap to navigate: feasibility, facility design, shielding, licensing, procurement, installation, acceptance testing, commissioning, quality control—and finally, clinical go-live.

Join Ednarissa Jenn D. Dultra, MSc, Health Physicist II and Nuclear Medicine Medical Physicist at Southern Philippines Medical Center, for the IOMP webinar:

🔬 From Concept to Commissioning — A Medical Physicist’s Roadmap to Establishing a Nuclear Medicine Facility

Whether you are building a service from the ground up or simply want to understand what happens behind the scenes before the doors officially open, this session promises a practical look at where medical physics fits into the entire journey.

Because “ready for patients” should mean much more than simply switching the system on.

🔬 Free Tools and Software for QA in Radiology

Quality assurance is fundamental to maintaining equipment performance, image quality, and patient safety in diagnostic radiology. As healthcare technologies continue to evolve, free, open-source, remote, and automated QA tools offer valuable opportunities to make quality assurance more accessible, efficient, and integrated into routine clinical practice.

Join Dr. Virginia Tsapaki of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and Prof. Mika Kortesniemi of the University of Helsinki and Helsinki University Hospital for an IOMP webinar exploring available and emerging tools for radiology QA and their practical implementation in clinical environments.

📅 15 October 2026
⏰ 12:00 GMT
⏳ Duration: 1 hour

Medical physicists, radiology professionals, trainees, and colleagues involved in imaging quality and radiation protection are encouraged to participate.

🔗 Register today: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_cvdLsOFqRoSGVU_zLW_A4A

Let us continue strengthening quality assurance through accessible tools, collaboration, and evidence-based practice!

See you all there!
