- Read about the CWC-IDEA Committee’s CARO-COMP JSM, CUPC, and CUMPC engagement in the latest issue of InterACTIONS.
- The COMP 2024 Pre-ASM Workshop on Clinical Scripting and Automation is a one day in-person event that targets medical physicists who are involved in or interested in developing and implementing in-house automation software solutions into the clinical environment. The workshop aims to provide an opportunity for Canadian medical physicists to network, share experiences, and overcome challenges associated with software development, implementation, and support. The inspiration for the workshop is a similar event in WESCAN several years ago and the organizing team hopes to expand the discussion to a national level and across multiple vendor platforms.
