IC3DDose:
The 6th International Conference on
3D Radiation Dosimetry (formerly DOSGEL)

** Find out how to verify complex dose distributions in 3D **

Co-Sponsored by AAPM, SEAAPM, DukeMPGP 

When:   August 22-26th, 2010

Where:   The Crowne Plaza Resort, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, USA
                   A fantastically scenic and peaceful ocean-front resort on a small island on the Eastern seaboard.

What:     State-of-the-art seminars, educational refreshers, proffered  sessions (both research papers and posters), 
                   workshops, debates, and outstanding exhibition space for exhibitors and organisations.
          
Objectives:-

1. Elevate the quality and accuracy of radiation therapy treatments through improved clinical dosimetry.
2. Investigate and understand the dosimetric challenges of modern radiation treatment techniques
3. Provide a forum to discuss the latest research and developments in 3D and advanced radiation dosimetry.
4. Energize and diversify dosimetry research and clinical practice by encouraging interaction and synergy between advanced,
   3D, and semi-3D dosimetry techniques.

Who:      Anyone with an interest in advanced dosimetry, including 3D dosimetry. 
               Historically the IC3DDose meeting has been attended by medical physicists (both clinical and research),
                   physicists, chemists, and engineers. New attendees are warmly welcomed.
