Over the last few years, the radiation therapist profession has undergone major developments. In radiotherapy, the teams, and their organization as well as the techniques have changed, however always with the goal of improving treatment quality for patients. Throughout interviews, this article offers to show three missions that have been assigned to French radiation therapists, such as the initial consultation, the role of the radiation therapist with the linear accelerator with onboard MRI, and paramedical research. The contribution of new technologies, the modification of the types of participants on the patient journey, as well as the thought process about the use of evidence-based practice and radiation therapist research have initiated changes for the job description, the beginning of more advanced practices, and a perspective of evolution within this profession.
在过去几年里,放射治疗师职业经历了重大发展。在放射治疗中,团队、其组织以及技术都发生了变化,但始终以提高患者治疗质量为目标。通过访谈,本文展示了赋予法国放射治疗师的三项任务,如初次咨询、放射治疗师在带有机载MRI的直线加速器方面的作用以及辅助医疗研究。新技术的贡献、患者就医过程中参与者类型的改变,以及关于循证实践和放射治疗师研究应用的思维过程,引发了工作职责描述的变化、更高级实践的开端以及该职业的发展前景。
