Questionnaire for the Bachelor’s Thesis

Dear respondents,

My name is Martina Kroupová, and I am a third-year student of Radiological Assistance at the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice. I am reaching out to you with a request to fill out my questionnaire, which will serve as a basis for my bachelor’s thesis on the topic “Adverse Effects of Radiotherapy in Curatively Treated Patients with Colorectal Cancer.”

The questionnaire is completely anonymous, so please do not provide your name. The results of this questionnaire survey will be used solely for my bachelor’s thesis.

Thank you.
