Green radiotherapy: AITRO survey on sustainability awareness among Italian radiation therapists
Italian RTTs demonstrate moderate awareness of sustainability, with limited training and heterogeneous adoption of sustainable practices. These findings highlight the need for structured educational programs, enhanced interprofessional awareness, and institutional support. Scientific Association such as AITRO can play a pivotal role in promoting and fostering sustainability policies in radiotherapy.
