Product Description
The first two editions of this popular text have established it as the number one choice for the trainee radiographer and radiation oncologist, providing the core basics of planning in a practical and accessible manner. This third edition has been thoroughly revised and updated throughout, yet maintains the authors' original straightforward approach. With three new chapters to cover recent developments in the field, the introduction of further reading and the inclusion of a color plate section to illustrate 3-D imaging, Practical Radiotherapy Planning remains both an essential training aid and invaluable ready reference for the radiotherapist in practice.
