Study Summary
This study assesses the health literacy and understanding of radiation therapy information during consultation in patients with prostate or breast cancer undergoing definitive radiation therapy. Health literacy is defined as "the capacity to obtain, process, and understand health information and services to enable sound health decisions." Information gained from this study, may help researchers develop appropriate modalities to enhance comprehension of radiation therapy, and therefore allow for improved patient decision making with medical treatment.
Primary Outcome
Patients will be given an internally developed questionnaire of 11 questions intended to ascertain understanding of basic radiotherapy information that is needed to make an informed decision. The questions with one answer will be given a +1 for correct and -1 for incorrect. The questions with multiple answers (toxicity) will be given a +1 for a correctly chosen side effect, and a -1 for an incorrect response. The total will be the patient's summary score.
