This book is an evidence-based guide to current use of radiation therapy for the treatment of malignancies at major disease sites.
"The aims of the book are to provide radiation oncology doctors in training and in practice with an evidence-based guide to the current management of cases in major tumour sites and help them to make appropriate treatment decisions including target definition and modern radiation oncology techniques including IMRT and SBRT." (Joe O'Sullivan, RAD Magazine, December, 2019)
"The intent of the book is to prepare readers for real-time discussions in a multidisciplinary setting and to provide a technical review to facilitate treatment planning and to address the management of toxicity. ... The intended audience includes radiation oncology residents, fellows, and practicing radiation oncologists." (Mark D. Hurwitz, Doody's Book Reviews, July 19, 2019)

This book is an evidence-based guide to current use of radiation therapy for the treatment of malignancies at major disease sites. It is designed to meet the needs of residents, fellows, and practicing radiation oncologists and will assist in selection and delineation of tumor volumes/fields and dose prescription for intensity-modulated radiation therapy, including volumetric modulated arc therapy for stereotactic radiosurgery or stereotactic body radiotherapy. Each tumor site-related chapter presents, from the perspective of an academic expert, informative cases at different stages in order to clarify specific clinical concepts. The coverage includes case presentation, a case-related literature review, patient preparation, simulation, contouring, treatment planning, image-guided treatment delivery, follow-up, and toxicity management. The text is accompanied by illustrations ranging from slice-by-slice delineations on planning CT images to finalized plan evaluations based on detailed acceptance criteria. The expert knowledge and evidence contained in this comprehensive book will give readers the confidence to manage common cancers without outside referral and to meet the clinical challenges faced in everyday practice.
