Description
1) Objective
As an expected outcome of the activities and in line with the SAMIRA objective to ensure that applications of ionising radiation in Member States operate in line with high standards for quality and safety, medical staff should have improved tools to ensure justification and optimisation of medical procedures involving ionising radiation in children and young adults. This should take various forms of technical/practical tools, like improved imaging referral and clinical guidelines, guidance, protocols and tools for specific exams and equipment, education and training curricula and material. Trainings for the hospital staff and information campaigns should also be organised.
This will benefit paediatric, adolescents, and young adult patients, and parents and young adults accessing imaging services in Member States. The actions are expected to bring short-term improvements in radiation safety and quality of CT and other radiological imaging in children and young patients and reduction of avoidable exposure to ionising radiation. In the mid- to long- term, this is expected to translate into reduced avoidable secondary effects, such as brain cancer linked to head CT exams. The outcomes of these activities should also reduce discrepancies in Europe to current radiation technology in medical applications through a coordinated approach.
2) Eligibility
Eligibility is limited to legal entities (public or private bodies) established in one of the eligible countries.
3) Location
Actions must take place in EU member states plus Ukraine, Moldova and Montenegro.
4) Budget
The total available funding is €3,000,000 with grants up to €3,000,000. Applicants must have stable and sufficient resources to successfully implement the projects and contribute their share. Organisations participating in several projects must have sufficient capacity to implement all these projects
5) Application
The application deadline is 22 January 2025. A full proposal must be submitted. All application templates can be downloaded at the given website.
