Show Notes

This week is the Season Finale of Season One of ‘Are We There Yet!

On a special episode, Kathryn sits down with radiation oncology expert Dr Lorraine Walsh to talk about all your questions about the big c - Cancer.

As a Radiation Oncologist specialised in Breast Cancer at Mater Private Network in Limerick, Dr. Walsh brings a wealth of experience and expertise to the table. As she tells Kathryn, Lorraine has dedicated her career to advancing cancer treatment in Ireland - with her main areas of focus including breast, gynaecological and lung cancers with a special interest in cutting-edge technology to improve patient outcomes.

Dr. Walsh has a keen interest in MRI-guided brachytherapy for cervical cancers, reirradiation of gynaecological malignancies, and the adoption of novel radiotherapy technologies such as intensity-modulated (IMRT) and image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) to reduce normal tissue toxicity during breast, lung and pelvic irradiation. Get ready for an insightful discussion on her work, her research, and the future of cancer care in Ireland, all taking place at Mater Private Network.
