Our 2023 ASM theme of “Beyond”, is aimed at taking you beyond the clinical, beyond the expected and beyond the traditional scopes of our specialties.

Collaborations with our fellow clinicians are becoming increasingly important in the face of advancing medical knowledge and technology. These collaborations ensure the best patient outcomes in the era of personalised medicine.

Multidisciplinary sessions bridging across radiology, radiation oncology and interventional radiology will form a keystone of our scientific program. In addition to a robust scientific program we will focus on leadership, professional wellbeing and adjuncts to improve patient outcomes.

We hope our program delivers beyond the traditional day-to-day of our disciplines and provides a vision for innovative quality health care.
