Dear esteemed colleagues and friends,
It is my pleasure to write message for the AFOMP Newsletter. AFOMP is a MP organization that serves the update of knowledge and development of different aspects of medical physics by using training, education, conference etc. To provide quality education and clinical practice for the patient benefit in this region, AFOMP has been trying its best efforts through modifying the policies, constitution, membership categories and its various kinds since its inception.
AFOMP newsletter covers scientific aspects as well as different activities of the organization of Asia Pacific region. A broad spectrum of readers will inspire from these issues and will try to work as a team between different organization. Our predecessors have made AFOMP visible functional recognition as a scientific organization in recent years and its value importance is increasing day by day.
In most of the countries of Asia Oceania, medical physics is in developing and also somewhere underprivileged phase so AFOMP is continuously trying to provide message through AFOMP newsletter that every NMO, AFOMP need to be established their profession in Asia Oceania region. On the other hand activities taken by NMOs, need to be circulated through this newsletter.
If you have not taken advantage of these opportunities in the past, I want to urge you to consider submitting your article, both in radiation oncology and diagnostic imaging, radiation protection, news, events, cutting edge information in this field to interact with others. The diversity of perspectives that members bring to these newsletters will help the organization to meet its mission and remain current with emerging healthcare and legislative initiatives.
I believe commitment and participation of member countries in this region will bring us achievement which is intended to promote the growth of scientific practice of medical physics professionals. Finally, I want to express my gratitude to our previous and current committee chairs and members for the time they contribute to AFOMP newsletter.
