Críticas

"The best written, most comprehensive textbook of radiation oncology available....This book is a must for the radiation oncologist and will also be of value to workers in related oncologic subspecialties. For the nononcologist, it will serve as an excellent general oncology and radiation oncology reference."

Reseña del editor

The Fourth Edition of this landmark work features nine new chapters and has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect contemporary findings. It is the only text that covers every important aspect of radiation oncology--from basic cancer biology, radiation biology, and radiation therapy physics to state-of-the-art treatment regimens for all cancer sites and tumor types and discussions of results. The text is designed to provide a better understanding of the natural history of cancer, the physical methods of radiation application, the effects of irradiation on normal tissues, and the most judicious ways in which radiation therapy can be employed. Included in the new edition: expanded coverage of new 3-D techniques and IMRT and a greater emphasis on pediatric concerns.
