Deep Dive: Melbourne's Royal Children's Hospital has taken a 15-year-old girl to the Supreme Court after she refused treatment for her leukaemia – and won.

Backed by her mother, who believed God could heal her daughter, the teenager rejected a bone marrow transplant despite doctors warning her chances of survival without it were just five per cent. The court sided with the hospital, authorising treatment against her wishes last month.

In this episode of The Briefing, Chris Spyrou speaks with University of Sydney law professor Cameron Stewart about the legal doctrine that allowed the court to intervene and what happens when medicine, parental authority and religious belief collide.
