“…We were unable to independently verify respondents' stated numbers of publications or any other information provided. However, for those variables for which independent corroboration was possible (eg, from the Association of Residents in Radiation Oncology survey regarding opportunities for research [10]), our findings were similar.…”

“…Many countries have evaluated the components that comprise quality RO TPs [ 5 – 10 ], yet fewer reports comment specifically on HM training [ 3 , 11 , 12 ]. In prior resident surveys from 2005–2008, lymphoma, along with sarcoma and pediatrics, was among the disease sites in which residents reported the lowest adequate clinical experience (78–85%), possibly attributed to diverse practice patterns and omission of RT for HM patients [ 11 ].…”

Assessment of Lymphoma and Other Hematologic Malignancies Training Needs Among Radiation Oncology Residents: a Brief Report

et al. 2021

The role of radiation therapy (RT) varies across hematologic malignancies (HM). Radiation oncology (RO) resident comfort with specific aspects of HM patient management is unknown. The International Lymphoma RO Group (ILROG) assessed resident HM training opportunities and interest in an HM away elective. RO residents (PGY2-5) in the Association of Residents in RO (ARRO) database ( n = 572) were emailed an anonymous, web-based survey in January 2019 including binary, Likert-type scale (1 = not at all, 5 = extremely, reported as median [interquartile range]), and multiple-choice questions. Of 134 resident respondents (23%), 86 (64%) were PGY4/5 residents and 36 (27%) were in larger programs (≥ 13 residents). Residents reported having specialized HM faculty (112, 84%) and a dedicated HM rotation (95, 71%). Residents reported “moderate” preparedness to advocate for RT in multidisciplinary conferences (3 [2–3]); make HM-related clinical decisions (3 [2–4]); and critique treatment planning (3 [2–4]). They reported feeling “moderately” to “quite” prepared to contour HM cases (3.5 [3–4]) and “quite” prepared to utilize the PET-CT five-point scale (4 [3–5]). Overall, residents reported feeling “moderately” prepared to treat HM patients (3 [2–3]); 24 residents (23%) felt “quite” or “extremely” prepared. Sixty-six residents (49%) were potentially interested in an HM away elective, commonly to increase comfort with treating HM patients (65%). Therefore, HM training is an important component of RO residency, yet a minority of surveyed trainees felt quite or extremely well prepared to treat HM patients. Programs should explore alternative and additional educational opportunities to increase resident comfort with treating HM patients.
