Radiotherapy Planning (Oxford Specialist Handbooks In Oncology) (Original PDF From Publisher)

By Dr. Ajith Kumar Thankamma

The latest volume in the Oxford Specialist Handbooks in Oncology series is called Radiotherapy Planning.

It offers a thorough manual for contemporary radiation therapy, solidly grounded on timeless ideas. The author addresses both more complex field-based arrangements and sophisticated radiation techniques so that this guide can be utilized for clinical practice anywhere in the world, including in low-resource nations. The chapters specific to each site are divided into two sections.

To guarantee that it stays appropriate and beneficial despite changes in other cancer treatments, the current treatment approaches are first examined, paying special emphasis to the pertinent underlying principles. Each chapter’s second section covers the most significant clinical trials that, at the time of publication, have shaped the treatment modalities that are used today.

A section on the imaging characteristics of various tumors is also included, which helps clinicians select the right pictures for target volume delineation. This handbook will provide new trainees in the specialty with an approachable introduction and it will continue to support critical thinking, the capacity to pose difficult questions, appropriate outcome analysis and treatment delivery evaluated based on both academic rigor and clinical benefit to patients in clinical practice.
