Radiotherapy: Seizing the opportunity in cancer care
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The incidence of cancer is increasing, resulting in a rising demand \nfor high?quality cancer care. In 2018, there were close to 4.23 million \nnew cases of cancer in Europe, and this number is predicted to rise \nby almost a quarter to 5.2 million by 2040.1 This growing demand poses \na major challenge to healthcare systems and highlights the need to ensure \nall cancer patients have access to high-quality, efficient cancer care. \nOne critical component of cancer care is too often forgotten in these \ndiscussions: radiotherapy. Radiotherapy is recommended as part of \ntreatment for more than 50% of cancer patients.2 3 However, at least \none in four people needing radiotherapy does not receive it.3 \nThis report aims to demonstrate the significant role of radiotherapy \nin achieving high?quality cancer care and highlights what needs to be done \nto close the current gap in utilisation of radiotherapy across Europe. \nWe call on all stakeholders, with policymakers at the helm, to help position \nradiotherapy appropriately within cancer policies and models of care \n? for the benefit of cancer patients today and tomorrow.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
