Abstract:
John Cameron has made significant contributions to the field of Medical Physics. His contributions encompassed
research and development, technical developments and education. He had a particular interest in the education of
medical physicists in developing countries. Structured clinical training is also an essential component of the professional development of a medical physicist. This paper considers aspects of the clinical training and education of medical physicists in South-East Asia and the challenges facing the profession in the region if it is to keep pace with the rapid increase in the amount and technical complexity of medical physics infrastructure in the region.
