Abstract:
The Committee on Protocol and Ethics of the American Association of Medical Dosimetrists (AAMD) has developed a Code of Ethics for a radiation oncology society of medical dosimetrists. The purpose of the code of ethics is fourfold: (1) Establish an ideal of professional conduct specific to the medical dosimetry profession; (2) Develop a statement of the moral values and commitment of the AAMD; (3) Recognize professional relationships and obligations; and (4) Define goals to which the medical dosimetrist should aspire. The Code of Ethics was adopted as AAMD policy in October 1995.
