The experience of incarceration is associated with higher allcause and cancer-specific mortality rates, making it an important to consider as a social determinant of health. Andrea Knittel, MD, PhD will introduce the epidemiology of cancer in prisons and jails, describe the massive cancer health disparities that are created and exacerbated by the criminal legal system, and inspire action to improve cancer care for patients impacted by the criminal legal system.

He will discuss several recent studies examining the omission of radiation for different solid malignancies and review strategies to identify patients who will benefit the most from radiation.
