The American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology (ASTRO) has published a new patient information brochure on radiation therapy.
The Radiation Oncology Treatment Team: Your Partners in Cancer Treatment explains the roles and responsibilities of each of the team members -- radiation oncologists, radiation oncology nurses, radiation therapists, dosimetrists, and medical radiation physicists -- in radiation therapy.
To obtain free copies, contact Beth Bukata at 1-800-962-7876, or write [email protected]. The brochure can also be viewed online at www.astro.org/patient/.
