Understanding therapeutic radiographers ’ confidence in assessing, managing & teaching radiation induced skin reactions (RISR): A national survey in the UK

The standard toxicity tools adopted for assessing Radiation Induced Skin Reactions (RISR) do not currently reflect how skin changes occur across all skin tones.A one size fits all approach is adopted currently for RISR assessment. The aim of this study was to understand what evidence-based practice and RISR tools are being used across the therapeutic radiography workforce and the levels of confidence in using these tools.
