About this study

This study involves both the development of a novel learning tool, the Radiation Treatment Plan Evaluation Learning Module, as well as a pilot program to validate this tool as an effective resource to teach treatment plan review and optimization to radiation oncology residents.

Stud procedures include screening for eligibility and completion of surveys and oncology examinations.

Participation is expected to last about 6-8 weeks.

It is expected about 20 radiation oncology resident physicians will participate in the study.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • The pilot program will be open to radiation oncology resident physicians that are in their PGY-2, PGY-3, or PGY-4 year.
  • All residents must have completed a breast cancer-specific radiation oncology rotation at least 3 months prior to enrollment in the pilot program in order to be eligible.

Exclusion criteria

-The study will not include any special populations.
