ABSTRACT

Recently, South and North Korea summits agreed to implement the cooperation and promotion of medical
healthcare at the third inter-Korean summit in Pyeongyang on September 18, 2018. Therefore, the South
Korean government and its affiliated organizations have been looking for ways to establish a specific plan for
support and exchanges in the field of healthcare and medical technology. In the background of the above new
policy, radiation medicine technology can also contribute to the exchange in the field of healthcare and science
& technology for the peaceful coexistence of one Korea. In this review, we analyzed and showed the status
of healthcare and radiation medicine infrastructure in North Korea in order to further develop a plan to share
the benefits of radiation medicine with North Korea in the exchange of healthcare and science & technology.
