Abstract

The AsiaSafe Asian Oceanian Symposium at the 2024 RCRT-RST Annual Congress discussed the situation and role of radiology in patient dose reduction and optimization using Diagnostic Reference Levels (DRLs) as a common language. The scientific committee of the Royal College of Radiologists of Thailand (RCRT) and Radiological Society of Thailand (RST) established the Collaboration Symposia to discuss hot health topics with participated Asian Radiological societies. At the 2024 RCRT-RST Collaboration Symposia, different views, initiatives, and ideas were presented by representatives from societies.
