The Japanese Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology (JASTRO) has conducted radiation oncology seminars for medical students and interns every summer since 1995. The seminar aims to help them understand what radiation oncology involves. To determine its effects, we asked the 222 participants to complete a questionnaire about the seminar and their career paths. Those who had chosen to be radiation oncologists were significantly satisfied with the seminar. Our findings suggest that attractive seminars contribute to an increase in the number of radiation oncologists.
