Gunderson and Tepper's Clinical Radiation Oncology by
5th edition - A comprehensive, multidisciplinary resource for the entire radiation oncology team, Gunderson & Tepper's Clinical Radiation Oncology, 5th Edition, thoroughly covers all aspects of this complex and dynamic field. Concise, templated chapters cover the basic biology of oncologic disease processes as well as updated treatment algorithms, the latest clinical guidelines, and state-of-the-art techniques and modalities. More than 1,000 images-detailed anatomy drawings, radiographic images, and more-provide outstanding visual support for every area of the text.
Atlas of PET/CT in Oncology - Volume 1: Brain, Head and Neck Cancers by
1st edition - The atlas aims to help practitioners to interpret PET/CT images of tumors in brain, head and neck in a timely and accurate way. Illustrating in a case-based manner, the PET/CT appearances of glioma, meningioma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, eye tumors, ear and temporal bone tumors, and neck tumors are covered. Each chapter is organized in the same format of clinical overview, PET/CT diagnosis, typical/atypical/confusing manifestation of the diseases. This book will be a useful reference to residents and practitioners in nuclear medicine, radiology, oncology, radiation oncology and nuclear medicine technology.
Basic Radiation Oncology by
2nd edition - This updated work is an all-in-one book, encompassing the essential aspects of radiation physics, radiobiology, and clinical radiation oncology. A complete section is devoted to each of these fields. In the first two sections, concepts that are crucial in radiation physics and radiobiology are reviewed in depth. The third section describes radiation treatment regimens appropriate for the main cancer sites and tumor types.
Palliative Radiation Oncology by
Offering practical, comprehensive coverage of the many nuanced technical and clinical aspects of this growing field, Palliative Radiation Oncology provides up-to-date clinical guidance in a thorough yet concise manner. In an easy-access format, it integrates basic science, pathologies, and research with clinical applications, covering different ways to approach problems, tumor assessment, precise target definition, and dosing-specific guidelines to minimize side effects/toxicities while balancing with desired outcomes.
Practical Radiation Oncology by
1st edition - This book addresses the most relevant aspects of radiation oncology in terms of technical integrity, dose parameters, machine and software specifications, as well as regulatory requirements. Radiation oncology is a unique field that combines physics and biology. As a result, it has not only a clinical aspect, but also a physics aspect and biology aspect, all three of which are inter-related and critical to optimal radiation treatment planning. In addition, radiation oncology involves a host of machines/software. One needs to have a firm command of these machines and their specifications to deliver comprehensive treatment.
