UCC welcomes new MSc Radiation Therapy students on World Radiotherapy Awareness Day
The Discipline of Medical Imaging and Radiation Therapy welcomed its newest intake of Radiation Therapy students with a themed snack table on World Radiotherapy Awareness Day (WRAD).
The team also shared the importance of the profession the students are joining.
Radiotherapy plays a vital role in cancer care:
- It can cure cancer.
- It improves survival and quality of life.
- It is needed by about half of all people diagnosed with cancer.
Yet, access to radiotherapy remains a major global challenge, with millions of patients worldwide unable to receive the treatment they need.
