Radiation Oncology

Editat de Frederik Wenz
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 aug 2023
In this Handbook, a team of leading experts provide a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the ever-changing field of radiation oncology. The publication is divided into three volumes, the first of which covers basics such as radiotherapy techniques, treatment documentation, clinical radiobiology, and patient management. In the second volume, all aspects of clinical radiation therapy are discussed in depth for the full range of tumor types. In order to ensure that the reader has a full understanding of cancer management in each scenario, information is also provided on diagnosis and classification, general management principles, the role of surgical and systemic therapy, and prognosis. The third volume focuses on medical physics, covering the mathematical and computer science background, biophysics, radiation physics, instrumentation, tracer kinetic modeling, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, radiation sources and detectors, biomedical engineering, imaging techniques, radiation treatment planning, and quality assurance. This book will be invaluable for all radiation oncologists. It is published as part of the SpringerReference program, which delivers access to living editions constantly updated through a dynamic peer-review publishing process.

Notă biografică

Wenz, Frederik M.D.
Professor and Chairman, Department of Radiation Oncology, University Medical Centre Mannheim, University of Heidelberg
Vice Chief Medical Officer, University Medical Center Mannheim
Head, Interdisciplinary Cancer Center, University Medical Center Mannheim.

Dr. Wenz received his MD degree from the University of Heidelberg in 1992 after studies in medicine and physics in Heidelberg, Birmingham, San Antonio and Chicago. He performed the experimental work for his M.D. thesis at the German Cancer Research Center in Heidelberg, where he also started his internship in diagnostic radiology (Prof. G. van Kaick). He moved to the University of Heidelberg for a residency in radiation oncology (Prof. M. Wannenmacher). After performing a fellowship in cancer biology at the Harvard School of Public Health, Boston (Prof. J.B. Little), he was promoted to attending at Heidelberg University. In 2000 he became professor and chairman in the department of radiation oncology at the University Medical Center Mannheim, University of Heidelberg.
Dr. Wenz has published more than 300 peer review journal papers and edited 4 text books. He served as an editorial board member in several journals. The clinical specialties are breast and prostate cancer, while the research interests are focussed on novel technologies like intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), image guided radiotherapy (IGRT), stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR), intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) and radioprotective gene-therapeutic approaches
