OVERVIEW

59th Annual Conference of The Particle Therapy Co-Operative Group (PTCOG 59) is organized by C-IN and will be held from Jun 04 - 07, 2021.

Description:
PTCOG is a conduit for the Particle Therapy community to Cooperate and has worked to provide opportunities to maintain continuity. Our PTCOG 2020 Online meeting was highly successful with positive comments from all Particle Therapy professionals including the exhibition and sponsors. We have continued to provide modest funding for projects that can be done under the constraints of the pandemic, and this year we congratulate Ray Mailhot and his colleagues who earned funding for “Individualizing and Optimizing Proton Therapy Consolidation in the Management of Lymphoma”. Most of our topical Subcommittees are remaining active, and the Thoracic Subcommittee will soon be submitting yet another manuscript for publication. Still, our community thrives from physical contact amongst our colleagues and collaborative developments, which are presently challenged
