This study systematically reviewed the literature to characterize the role of simulation-based medical education (SBME) in radiation oncology and develop a framework for future SBME interventions. Most studies meeting inclusion criteria described successful learning outcomes with a minority self-identifying as SBME. The majority of studies targeted attending physicians and residents as learners and focused on contouring. There is opportunity for expansion and increased awareness of SBME in the context of radiation oncology curriculum development.
