Bringing together Therapeutic Radiographers working within satellite radiotherapy centres to support collaboration, learning, and service development
The Radiotherapy Satellite Centres Special Interest Group (SIG) has been established to bring together Therapeutic Radiographers working within satellite radiotherapy centres to support collaboration, shared learning, and service development. Satellite centres often face unique operational and clinical challenges that differ from those experienced in larger main radiotherapy departments. This group provides a dedicated forum where members can exchange knowledge, discuss common issues, and share best practice to help strengthen and improve satellite services.
Membership is open to Therapeutic Radiographers who are involved in or supporting satellite radiotherapy services.
