This rare but high-risk scenario, coupled with fear of radiation, has created ambiguity in the ideal management of pregnant patients. Without a comprehensive guide for the use of radiation in imaging and treatment for pregnant cancer patients, it is difficult for providers to offer optimal patient-centered care without introducing disparities. The goal of this paper is to provide guidance on the use of radiation for screening, diagnosis, staging, and treatment of cancer, while highlighting gaps in existing knowledge and guidelines. The intention is that physicians, medical physicists, and patients could use this document as a resource for shared decision-making, ensuring safe and effective practice. A team of physicians and medical physicists with expertise in imaging, radiotherapy, and maternal fetal medicine was assembled, along with a patient advocate and lawyer. Existing guidelines and recent literature were reviewed. Authors also drew from their experience where published guidance was lacking. The resulting document discusses best practice ","cbCaieHZFhQvhm6u","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieHZFhQvhm6u","pdf",1838068,13,"English","# Introduction\n## Cancer incidence during pregnancy\n## Multidisciplinary, patient-centered cancer management\n## Radiation and chemotherapy considerations","[{\"question\":\"How common is cancer during pregnancy according to the document?\",\"answer\":\"Cancer occurs in approximately 1 per 1000 pregnancies, and the rate is rising.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is managing cancer during pregnancy challenging?\",\"answer\":\"Ambiguity in ideal management arises from fear of radiation and discomfort with fetal exposure, and diagnosis can be delayed when symptoms are attributed to pregnancy.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the paper’s main goal?\",\"answer\":\"To guide the use of radiation in screening, diagnosis, staging, and treatment of cancer during pregnancy, highlighting knowledge gaps and supporting safe, effective, patient-centered care.\"}]","Pregnancy, cancer, and radiation - a modern refresher | PDF",1790107958,33]
