SLIDE ONE - Title Slide (thirty seconds)

"Good morning respected faculty, colleagues, and friends.

I'm Prakash Umbarkar, and today I'll be speaking on Patient Safety in Radiation Therapy-from a Radiation Therapist's perspective."

SLIDE TWO-THREE - Complexity of Radiotherapy (one minute)

"Radiotherapy is one of the most complex treatments in modern medicine. Multiple steps, multiple professionals, multiple handovers-every day."

"Wherever complexity exists, the risk of error increases."

Pause & look at audience: "And that is why patient safety must be intentional-not accidental."
