Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) Course for Radiation Therapists (RTTs) in Latin American Countries

With the expansion of radiation oncology technology globally, many clinics are transitioning to Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT).1 However, resources for training radiation therapists (RTTs) in topics fundamental to IMRT are lacking in low-and-middle-income countries (LMICs),2,3 including for RTTs in Latin America. A remote curriculum for RTTs may help close this gap and create accessible, sustainable, and high-quality education for clinics across Latin America.
