Abstract
Patients undergoing radiotherapy treatment have complex fears and anxieties about the therapy and the diseases which have made it necessary. The health care professions have been slow to identify these worries, and have subsequently made few attempts to address them. Beverley Frith’s review of the literature demonstrates the different perceptions which have been expressed in relation to this subject and leads her into the identification of the maim areas where patients require information.Keywords
