The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) has established a comprehensive Code of Ethics for its members. The Code is a formal part of AAPM governance, maintained as Professional Policy 24, and includes both principles of ethical practice and the rules by which a complaint will be adjudicated. The structure and content of the Code have been crafted to also serve the much broader purpose of giving practical ethical guidance to AAPM members for making sound decisions in their professional lives. The Code is structured in four major parts: a Preamble, a set of ten guiding Principles, Guidelines that elucidate the application of the Principles in various practice settings, and the formal Complaint process. Guidelines have been included to address evolving social and cultural norms, such as the use of social media and the broadening scope of considerations important in an evolving workplace. The document presented here is the first major revision of the AAPM Code of Ethics since 2008. This revision was approved by the Board of Directors to become effective 1 January 2019.
美国医学物理学家协会（AAPM）为其成员制定了全面的道德规范。该规范是 AAPM 治理的正式组成部分，作为专业政策 24 进行维护，其中包括道德实践的原则和将对投诉进行裁决的规则。该规范的结构和内容旨在为 AAPM 成员提供更广泛的实用道德指导，以帮助他们在职业生涯中做出明智的决策。该规范分为四个主要部分：序言、十项指导原则、在各种实践环境中阐明原则应用的准则，以及正式的投诉程序。准则的纳入是为了应对不断变化的社会和文化规范，例如社交媒体的使用以及在不断发展的工作场所中重要的考虑因素的范围扩大。本文档是自 2008 年以来 AAPM 道德规范的首次重大修订。该修订版已获得董事会批准，自 2019 年 1 月 1 日起生效。
