缩小低收入和中等收入国家以及高收入国家土著和地理偏远人群的癌症护理差距需要投资和创新。对于放疗来说尤其如此,放疗的全球差距是当今医疗保健领域最大的差距之一。人们提出了新的模式、范式以及非传统合作,以改善癌症控制的全球公平性。我们描述了放射肿瘤学界最近采取的举措,以增加获得治疗的机会,建设低收入和中等收入国家的放射肿瘤学劳动力,从高收入国家动员更多专业人员,并提高对全球公平癌症护理需求的认识。 (cid:1) 2016 年皇家放射科医生学院。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Closing the gap in cancer care within low-and middle-income countries and in indigenous and geographically isolated populations in high-income countries requires investment and innovation. This is particularly true for radiotherapy, for which the global disparity is one of the largest in healthcare today. New models and paradigms and non-traditional collaborations have been proposed to improve global equity in cancer control. We describe recent initiatives from within the radiation oncology community to increase access to treatment, build the low-and middle-income countries ’ radiation oncology workforce, mobilise more professionals from within high-income countries and raise awareness of the global need for equitable cancer care.
