Please can all healthcare professionals take the pledge to get the term Pelvic Radiation Disease recognised. Please can you share so others are aware. It's a life changing disease & result of cancer treatment. Please help 🙏 💕 xx @SamanthaBostoc3 @DrLisaDurrant @RadiotherapyUK

Congratulations to one of our chief residents @DanielDickstein on his latest publication in @IJROBP “Sexual Health Outcomes in Sexual Minority and Heterosexual Men After Prostate Radiation Therapy” @KarynAGoodman
