Description:
Considered the “gold
standard” in the field for over 45 years,
Radiobiology for
the
Radiologist combines traditional and
molecular radiation
biology principles and appeals to students, residents,
and
veteran clinical
practitioners. This edition continues the two-part
format
of
previous editions
and features brand-new chapters, thoroughly updated
content, and hundreds
of figures that provide a visual context to the
information in
each
chapter. - Organized into two sections. Part1 is
sufficient
for
students of
Radiology and Nuclear Medicine and follows the
syllabus
published by RSNA.
Students in Radiation Oncology need the general
information contained in
Part 1, but also need the more specialized information
contained in Part
2.
- New chapters
introduce new therapies on medical countermeasures to
radiation exposure
and new molecular techniques in radiology.
-
Mirrors the format of the
Syllabus in
Radiation Biology
prepared by the Radiological Society of North America
(RSNA).
-
Written for residents,
researchers, and graduate students in radiology,
nuclear
medicine, radiation
oncology, and medical physics.
-
Generally considered the most comprehensive
textbook on cellular
and molecular radiobiology.
-
Enrich Your eBook Reading Experience with
Enhanced Video, Audio
and Interactive Capabilities!
- Read directly
on
your preferred
device(s), such as computer, tablet, or
smartphone.
-
Easily
convert to audiobook,
powering your
content with natural language text- to-speech.
-

disabilities, visual/auditory
impairments, second-language or literacy challenges,
and
more.

“This is
the
definitive resource for the study and
application of radiobiology to diagnostic radiology
and
radiation oncology.
The value of this book to both these fields is readily
apparent considering
that the first edition, published in 1972, was written
by
the
current senior
editor, Dr. Eric Hall. Hall (subsequently Hall and
Giaccia)
has served as the
leading textbook of radiobiology used by generations
of
radiologists and
radiation oncology residents. This edition continues
to
provide a
contemporary update for those seeking an understanding
of radiobiology
with a focus on its application in medicine.
The purpose
is to provide a thorough introduction to radiobiology
for
resident physicians in
radiology, nuclear medicine, and radiation oncology.
The
book is the
definitive resource for these purposes and an
essential
addition to the library
of all residents in these fields. The online format
will
be of
great value to the
majority of readers who prefer ebooks to print books,
particularly the
residents who are the primary audience.
The book is
geared to resident physicians but none-the-less is a
highly
valuable resource
to practicing physicians and other researchers seeking
understanding of
radiobiology. The authors are pre-eminent authorities
in
this field.
As with prior editions, the
book is extremely
well organized, including
at the end of each chapter a "Summary of Pertinent
Conclusions" section
highlighting the concepts and key points. The book is
divided into sections
for students of diagnostic radiology, nuclear
medicine,
and
radiation
oncology (chapters 1-16), followed by a section
specifically
for students of
radiation oncology (chapters 17-28). There are
numerous
figures in all
chapters that significantly complement the written
text.
For
nearly 50 years, this
has
served as the
definitive textbook of
radiobiology. The authors admirably provide timely and
essential updates
which continue to make this book an essential addition
to
the library of any
individual interested in radiobiology or any
institution
which
serves such an
audience.
Beyond being a
definitive
resource
on this topic, the authors elucidate the details of
the
many
aspects of
radiobiology in a concise yet complete manner. Well
done!"
