Free Webinar: SINFONIA Recommendations – Enhancing Radiation Safety and Risk Appraisal in Clinical Practice

Dear EFRS Member Societies and Educational Institutions,
We kindly ask for your support in promoting an important webinar focused on the newly released SINFONIA recommendations, which mark a significant step forward in radiation protection, patient safety, and clinical practice across Europe.
Please share the following announcement with your members, faculty, students, and networks:
📢 Free Webinar: SINFONIA Recommendations – Enhancing Radiation Safety and Risk Appraisal in Clinical Practice
🗓 Date: Monday, April 28, 2025
🕓 Time: 16:00–17:30 CEST
📍 Location: Online (Zoom)

The SINFONIA project (2020–2024) has delivered a set of groundbreaking recommendations aimed at modernising and enhancing the safety and efficacy of medical procedures involving ionising radiation. These recommendations were developed through multi-disciplinary collaboration, focused on personalised dosimetry and risk assessment in:
✅ Diagnostic Radiology
✅ Nuclear Medicine
✅ Radiation Therapy
Key areas addressed in the recommendations include:
  • Development of AI tools (e.g. i-Dose) for accurate, patient-specific dose estimation
  • Guidelines for communicating radiation risks to patients and the public
  • Strategies for optimising dose in both imaging and therapy procedures
  • Emphasis on education and training to strengthen radiation safety knowledge
  • Frameworks to assess environmental and occupational exposure
The recommendations are essential reading for radiographers, nuclear medicine technologists, radiation therapists, medical physicists, educators, and decision-makers—ensuring that patient care is both safe and future-ready.
🗣 The session includes an open discussion and is hosted by the MEENAS consortium, with support from EIBIR.
We would be grateful if you could share this event widely and encourage participation from your organisation. These recommendations represent a vital tool for improving practice and advancing the role of radiographers in radiation safety across Europe.
Thank you for your support.
Warm regards,
The EFRS Executive Board
