About this Item

Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

About this title

Synopsis

Computer applications in radiotherapy have multiplied enormously over the past three decades. This guidebook explores critical issues in the design and delivery of computerized radiotherapy, including CT simulation, CT/MRI integration, 3-D treatment planning, plan optimization, on-line portal imaging, multileaf collimation, dose intensity modulation and computerized treatment delivery. A comprehensive overview of these techniques is presented by an outstanding faculty. Contributors discuss the latest developments in clinical treatment with irradiation, for brain, head and neck, lung, gastrointestinal, prostate and other major cancer sites. This practical and clinically-oriented volume is especially intended for radiotherapy clinical and technical practitioners - physicans, physicists, radiation technology therapists, and dosimetrists - as well as for all oncologists interested in recent major advances in radiation oncology.
