Please find the agenda for the 2026 RaySearch Americas User Meeting below. We hope you find the sessions informative and useful.

For some sessions attendees have the opportunity to receive both MDCB and CAMPEP credits. Please note, 20-minute sessions will be grouped together so they are long enough to qualify for credits. You must attend all sessions in that group to receive credit. Please follow the links below to take the quiz to receive the credits.

Quizzes will be available until March 26, 2027.

If you have any questions about receiving credits please contact emily.mullikin@raysearchlabs.com
