2018 AAPM Spring Clinical Meeting (April 7–10 • Las Vegas, NV) - Request for Proposals (RFP)
*New this year* the process for submitting ideas for the Spring Clinical Meeting has been streamlined. All that is required is a topic and basic description and your contact information. If you have objectives and possible speakers, those may also be included. The timing of this request for topics intentionally overlaps with the annual meeting so that any items not covered at the annual meeting can be identified for the spring meeting.
Symposia and Courses are an integral part of the AAPM Spring Clinical Meeting. Each year, symposia, panel discussions, and workshops on various practical and clinical topics provide members with excellent learning opportunities and a forum for discussion. Symposia and Courses can be clinical, educational, practical, or professional in nature (or a combination) on the following four tracks: Therapy, Diagnostic, Mammography, and Professional.
