Description:
New high-precision technologies for the planning and delivery of
radiotherapy are major advances in cancer treatment. This volume is a
comprehensive guidebook to these new technologies and the many clinical
treatment programs that bring them into practical use. Advances in
intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), 4D and adaptive treatment
planning are clearly explained, and the new target localization and
image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) systems are comprehensively reviewed.
Clinical tutorials fully illustrate the target definitions for the
major cancer sites, and techniques for organ motion management are
shown. In addition, chapters explore the technical basis for
stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and the latest clinical
experience with it for most organ sites.
In this volume, foremost authorities explain the important new
techniques and technologies of radiation oncology, and give essential
treatment guidelines for its clinical and technical practitioners.
Review:
'The book is an outstanding summary of modern radiotherapy technologies and
applications.
The authors demonstrate the maturation of IMRT in clinical practice and the ability to
control geometric uncertainties confidently with IGRT. The emergence of "stereotactic thinking"
for the body (SBRT) is an exciting example of the convergence of conformal treatment and image-based
target localization, and the promising treatment strategies it creates. This highly readable and
richly illustrated book is a valuable resource for professionals interested in the rapidly
advancing frontiers of modern radiation therapy.'
