Viewpoint: Optimising Cancer Treatment to Reduce Its Environmental Impact
Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT It is widely accepted that treatment and care for patients with cancer must and should happen, as it is what everyone would want for themselves and their loved ones. Everyone wants the best possible care, but climate change and the extreme weather that it causes are increasingly affecting everyone including patients in negative ways.
