The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has published the document namely “Guidelines on professional ethics for medical physicists” in 2023. This document complements several other IAEA publications on similar topics like IAEA Human Health Series 25. The “code of ethics” in medical physics practices is an essentially important topic and this publication covers the topic comprehensively. However, a few areas of improvement like the correlation of this publication with the concepts of leadership, safety culture, etc. have been identified in this review.
