Transition to practice in radiation oncology: Mind the gap.

CONCLUSION: There are gaps in TtP education for RO trainees with opportunities for enrichment through the forthcoming implementation of a competency-based medical education framework in 2019. The gap in perceived competency in physician-related radiotherapy tasks may be caused by the complex interaction of clinical workflow processes, people and technology that has led to ineffective integration of trainees. The data are informative to medical education leaders for the development of comprehensive TtP curricula. PMID: 31252294 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
