César U. Alas, PhD student at Dartmouth, shared a post by Ivy Riano on X, adding:
“Proud to share our last research project, where we evaluated 24 radiotherapy innovations during the pandemic across 11 oncology centers in Latin America and the Caribbean.
These practices, prove to be safe, efficient, and applicable in future public health crises.”
Quoting Ivy Riano’s post:
“Published:
Our NIH-funded CLARO PARTE study for Latin America and the Caribbean Countries suggests scalable practices in radiation oncology clinics to guide actions during future large-scale public health crises in low- and middle-income countries.”
