Expanding Access to Computed Tomographic Staging and Three-Dimensional Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy for Cervical Cancer in Ghana.

It is feasible to provide state-of the-art cancer treatment with CT staging and IMRT to patients with cervical cancer in low-resource settings and achieve meaningful improvements in outcomes. It requires a broad commitment by program leadership to invest in technology and staff training. Major challenges include balancing improved clinical care with reduced patient throughput when radiation treatment capacity is constrained, and with the additional cost in the absence of universal health coverage.
