E5: Medical Radiation Science in Low-Middle Income Countries

Do you consider the equipment, technology and infrastructure available to you make your practice possible? Radiography and radiation therapy in low-to-middle income countries face challenges such as limited or out-dated equipment, shortages of skilled staff and inadequate facilities.

In this episode of RadPod, host Steve Lacey talks with radiographer, Jacob Ago and radiation therapist, Craig Opie who have experienced these conditions first hand. Jacob and Craig describe the challenges, possible solutions, and how practitioners and organisations in higher income countries can help.
