Résumé
Brachytherapy exposure during residency varies between residency training programs. As a result, many graduating radiation oncology residents do not feel competent or confident in performing brachytherapy procedures. A brachytherapy fellowship encompasses hands-on procedural skills in addition to clinical decision-making, radiotherapy treatment planning, as well as post-treatment care. During this time, a fellow develops interpersonal relationships with their faculty supervisors in the form of mentorship, sponsorship, and coaching in addition to clinical teaching. The objective of this article is to review these important relationships focusing on brachytherapy fellowship training as an example.
