Event Details
The 8th MR in RT Symposium is the major event in the field of MR guided radiotherapy and we expect many opinion leaders from all major clinical research centers to contribute to it. We anticipate Medical Physicists, Radiation Oncologists as well as Radiologists, Computer Scientists, Radiation Therapists and trainees interested in the field of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Radiation Therapy. This annual symposium is a 2.5 day scientific meeting and will include keynote lectures, panel discussions, talks and poster presentations as well as an industrial exhibition. We intend to discuss especially the current clinical status and future directions of this field, which will be important for its clinical success.
For those, who might not be able to travel due to current pandemics, we will also offer online participation with interaction to on-site speakers and colleagues. Please be assured, that we are taking all possible measures, to make this event safe and effective for all participants. Nevertheless, we will plan also for a social program, which can contribute to build new and reinforce existing cooperation among the attendees in a relaxed atmosphere.

Event Details
The aim of this course is to convey in-depth knowledge about functional MR imaging (fMRI) with a focus on clinical practice. This advanced MR neuroimaging technique is increasingly applied to the assessment of the healthy and diseased human brain and provides information about the brain’s activity. The course will offer an overview of present methodologies, functional neuroanatomy, and clinical as well as some research applications. These topics are taught using a mixture of lectures, practical data analysis sessions, and small group case discussions. Special attention is given to the interpretation of clinical cases, including results from both task-based presurgical fMRI examinations and more advanced resting-state fMRI studies.

It is our pleasure to welcome all European medical physicists to participate in ECMP 2020, the third European Congress of Medical Physics, in Torino, Italy (postponed to June 2021 due to the COVID pandemic).
Following the successful second congress, ECMP 2018 in Copenhagen, we are looking forward to meeting an increased number of colleagues from all medical physics disciplines. The organizing committee of the congress is also happy to announce Spain as the welcome nation of ECMP 2020.
Our profession has always been constantly moving along with the new physical, technological, and quantitative methods emerging to support medicine. In our field, the state of change is a norm, not an exception. During recent years, we have witnessed even more rapid advancements in many areas, such as artificial intelligence, which calls for further reassessment of our professional development, roles, and education. We should embrace this change by using our expertise and updating our knowledge. Sharing ideas between medical physics specialities continues to be one of the keys to keep up with our evolving role in both research and clinical work. Embracing change and sharing knowledge is also the guiding objective of ECMP 2020 and its scientific program.
