Enhance the cooperation of member state medical physics organizations in exchanging the information about scientific activities planned in their respective countries and putting this information in the AFOMP calendar of scientific activities.

Promote co-operation and communication with other medical physics organizations outside Asia to support the quality of patient care through research, education and training.

Organize and/or sponsor regional and international conferences in the AFOMP region.

Encourage research, education and training in medical physics in order to maintain quality of medical physics and patient care in the AFOMP region.

Promote exchange of knowledge and research to:

  1. upgrade skills of medical physicists to enhance application of physics principles in medicine
  2. explore frontier areas in physics and biology and their potential impact on medicine
  3. emphasize research within academic physics
  4. promote international cooperation

Promote international cooperation in addressing the science needs in medical physics, including participation in the scientific programs of other organizations.

Encourage medical physicists to share information about their research, publications so that the AFOMP members can get to know and benefit from each other.

Explore possibilities of exchange programmes for young medical physicists to increase their knowledge and skills.
