Provides, with its companion volumes, a comprehensive review of current practice in radiotherapy. As well as recent developments in the specialty, the text takes account of likely future changes. Each chapter gives an account of the topic, placing it in the context of more established techniques.

Radiotherapy continues to change and develop rapidly. Most clinical oncologists have a wide clinical practice and find it difficult to keep abreast of the many new developments in treatment methods. This volume addresses some of the most exciting growth areas of radiation oncology, both at a technical level and also in important aspects of clinical work.

Together with Volume 1 and Volume 3 (in preparation) this book provides a comprehensive review of current practice in radiotherapy.
