Book Description

Publication Date: July 6, 1993 | ISBN-10: 084933263X | ISBN-13: 978-0849332630 | Edition: 1

Handbook of Dosimetry Data for Radiotherapy is an important new reference featuring comprehensive data on external beam radiotherapy; brachytherapy sources; and special procedures such as total body irradiation (TBI), total body electron therapy (TBE), stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), and intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT). External beam data includes depth doses for photon and electron beams of most widely used treatment machines, and the book's brachytherapy section contains the physical and radiation parameters of commonly used radioactive sources. Handbook of Dosimetry Data for Radiotherapy is an excellent reference for physicists, dosimetrists, and radiation oncologists.
