Leo cancer care exhibiting at AAPM 2026
Sunday 19th - Tuesday 21st July 2026, Booth 1333
AAPM 2026
Join Us in Vancouver
In July, we’ll be joining the global medical physics community in Vancouver, Canada for the AAPM 2026 Annual Meeting & Exhibition, one of the field’s leading events for collaboration, innovation, and advancing clinical practice.
Throughout the event, we’ll be welcoming visitors to booth 1333 to connect with our team, learn more about upright radiotherapy, and discover how we’re helping shape the future of more patient-centred cancer care.

Technology Developments to Overcome Global Disparities in Imaging and Treatment
Access to imaging and radiotherapy remains limited in many parts of the world, leaving millions without essential cancer diagnosis and treatment. High costs, complex infrastructure, and reliance on specialist staff continue to be major barriers.
This symposium explores how innovation can help close this gap—focusing on more accessible, practical solutions for imaging, planning, and treatment. Topics include low-field MRI, the Radiation Planning Assistant, and upright radiotherapy, all designed to support more equitable, patient-centered care worldwide.

Taking Treatment to New Heights: Readying Upright Proton Therapy for the Clinic
This talk shares how an academic center has implemented upright positioning, fixed‑beam proton delivery, and modern information systems to reshape clinical workflows. As centers prepare to integrate upright imaging, chair‑based setup, and patient‑rotation delivery models, success depends on orchestrating each step—from simulation to planning to adaptive treatment—with the same rigor applied to gantry‑based systems. This session highlights project planning, workflow design principles, commissioning considerations, and performance benchmarks needed to bring upright proton therapy from concept to clinic, ensuring that clinics can deliver safe and patient‑centered care in this new treatment paradigm.
Speaker: Carri Glide-Hurst, Associate Chair for Radiation Oncology Physics, University of Wisconsin Madison
