Walter and Miller’s Textbook of Radiotherapy is a key textbook for therapeutic radiography students as well as trainee clinical and medical oncologists, clinical physicists and technologists.
The book is divided into 2 sections.
The first section covers physics and provides a comprehensive review of radiotherapy physics.
This section is designed to be non-physicist friendly, to simply and clearly explain the physical principles upon which radiotherapy and its technology are based.
The second section is a systematic review by tumour site giving an up to date summary of radiotherapy practice.
The title also covers the place of chemotherapy, surgery and non-radiotherapy treatments as well as the principles of cancer patient treatment including supportive care and palliative treatments.
It is a comprehensive must-have resource for anyone studying therapeutic radiotherapy.
