Recenzii

“This book is a combination of equipment design, basic physics, patient advice, dosimetry evaluation and use of concurrent treatments to enhance radio-therapy, and will be a useful introductory book for students and trainees across the radiotherapy field to understand the patient pathway and experience of radiotherapy, although care must be taken with the currency of information, in particular in managing toxicities.” (Naomi Dickie, RAD Magazine, December, 2018)
