Increasing Brachytherapy Mentorship and Representation Through #NextGenBrachy

Despite the critical role of brachytherapy in cancer treatment, recent trends show a decline in utilization. Additionally, women providers have been shown to be underrepresented. A resident survey identified high interest in on-the-job training. To address these challenges, a national mentorship program was developed with the aim of improving representation and on-the-job mentorship, with the long-term goal of increasing brachytherapy utilization.
