Radiation therapists document and deliver accurate, precise daily radiation treatments, implementing the treatment plan for each individual patient. They assess the patient at each treatment and refer the patient to a nurse or the radiation oncologist for further assessments, if needed. Also, they assist patients with daily treatment schedules, if needed.
