Description:

The Physics of Conformal Radiotherapy provides a thorough overview of conformal radiotherapy and biological modelling. It develops the 3-D techniques in radiation therapy covered in: The Physics of Three Dimensional Radiation Therapy by Webb. It includes three dimensional treatment planning, optimisation, with careful evaluation of photon multileaf collimation, proton therapy, transit dosimetry, intensity-modulation techniques and assesses biological modelling. It is a carefully written, authoritative account of the physics and methodology underlying current practive in three dimensional radiation therapy. These two volumes provide an invaluable teaching guide and reference for all medical physicists and radiation oncologists / therapists using conformal radiotherapy.


 
The table of contents:


Developments and controversies in three-dimensional treatment planning. Methods to create a 2-D modulation of fluence (intensity) across a radiation field. Megavoltage portal imaging, Transit dosimetry and tissue compensators. The multileaf collimator in clinical practice. Converting 3-D dose to biological outcomes TCP and NTCP. Progress in proton radiotherapy. Image formation, utilisation, display, the role of 3-D, and the CT-simulator.


 Readership:

 Postgraduate MSc students in radiation science or medical physics and radiological physics students (US).
