Virtual Reality Boosts Gynaecological Radiotherapy Training at Rays of Hope Anchor Centres

The IAEA has equipped its Rays of Hope Anchor Centres with virtual reality googles, an innovative educational tool in gynaecologic radiotherapy, to further increase the impact of these regional cancer care leaders. This resource will bolster the Anchor Centres' capabilities as knowledge and capacity building hubs under the IAEA's Rays of Hope initiative to expand cancer care access where it is needed most.

"Rays of Hope Anchor Centres amplify our work and impact in cancer care," said IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi. "These regional training and education hubs help to narrow the knowledge gap, and that know-how, coupled with the necessary technology, is how we extend the reach of lifesaving cancer care and offer support to health systems that need it most."
