The differential cross section for {ital pp}{r arrow}{ital pp}{gamma} has been measured at an average bombarding energy of 294 MeV and for proton laboratory angles between 5{degree} and 12{degree}. The absolute normalization of the data is based on the concurrent measurement of {ital pp} elastic scattering. The experiment has been carried out with the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility Cooler Ring using an internal gas jet target in an electron-cooled beam. The data cover a region of the kinematic space where off-shell contributions of the {ital NN} interaction are expected to be enhanced. The shape of the measured cross sections as a function of the photon angle agrees fairly well with the expectation from phase space alone.
