AAPM Task Groups

AAPM Task Groups are specialized teams within the American Association of Physicists in Medicine that develop guidelines and recommendations for best practices in medical physics. These groups focus on areas like radiation therapy, imaging, and equipment safety, ensuring consistent, high-quality care. They review current scientific evidence, evaluate technologies, and create detailed reports to help medical professionals deliver safe and effective treatments. Think of them as expert committees that standardize procedures and promote safety across medical facilities handling radiation and imaging technologies.
