- - The implementation of hypofractionation techniques in radiotherapy could increase treatment access for millions of patients with prostate and breast cancer, highlighting the need for new technologies in LMICs with existing resources.
- - A global survey revealed variability in the use of radiopharmaceutical therapy, with issues related to supply chains and workforce training impacting access; initiatives like the International Atomic Energy Agency's Rays of Hope program and investment from development banks are encouraged to improve the situation.
