The NACP is an umbrella organisation, an association of associations, for the Nordic Medical Physics societies. The NACP is not meant to replace any functions of EFOMP or IOMP, but to strengthen their role in the Nordic countries.

The Nordic Association for Clinical Physics was founded in 1962 and was an active association for many years with an excellent international reputation. Following its fourteenth meeting and General Assembly in Reykjavik on June the 26th 1992, the association was not active.

In June 2004 a new Constitution was approved by the boards of the Nordic National Member Organisations (NMO) for Medical Physics: the Danish Society for Medical Physics (Denmark), the Finnish Association of Hospital Physicists (Finland), the Icelandic Society for Biomedical Engineering, the Norwegian Society for Medical Physics (Norway) and the Swedish Society for Radiation Physics (Sweden).
