Summary

This study will look at where 300 cancer patients at Delafontaine Hospital live and how long it takes them to get to appointments. By mapping anonymized addresses, researchers hope to understand how distance, transportation, and social factors create inequalities in access to care. The goal is to find ways to better support patients in the future.
