Rayos Contra Cancer is a U.S.-based nonprofit organization focused on transforming radiation therapy for cancer patients worldwide by enabling clinicians in low- and middle-income settings to deliver equitable, high-quality care. The group achieves this by connecting clinics in resource-limited countries with centralized volunteer support from radiotherapy professionals in the United States and internationally, fostering medical training, research, and infrastructure development. Its approach includes developing collaborations among volunteer medical physicists, radiation oncologists, therapists, nurses, cancer centers, and international cancer organizations to provide strategic and operational guidance to LMIC clinics and support end-to-end solution implementation. Based in San Francisco, California, RCC aims to empower existing radiotherapy centers to improve access to high-quality treatments for patients in constrained settings. A notable development in RCC’s activity involved a partnership with ProKnow in 2019 to advance cancer care quality through collaborative efforts.
