An ideal text for radiation oncologists, hematologist-oncologists, and radiologists, "Image-Guided Radiotherapy and Functional Imaging in Modern Lymphoma Management" is the foremost source for information on the increasingly important subject of image guided radiation therapy (IGRT) and its crucial role in the clinical evolution of high-precision ionizing beam therapy. An understanding of IGRT allows clinicians to improve targeting accuracy and safely increase dosage administration without increasing toxicity in normal, healthy tissue areas, resulting in better lymphoma patient outcomes....

Before exploding as supernovae, luminous hot stars live out their lives of a few million years with prodigious outputs of radiation and stellar winds, dramatically affecting both their evolution and environments. This book offers a detailed introduction to the astrophysics of these massive stars and how they contribute to the evolution of galaxies and starburst phenomena. HII galaxies, their connection to starburst galaxies, and the contribution of starburst phenomena to galaxy evolution through superwinds, are thoroughly explored. The authors conclude with the wider cosmological...

Heavily illustrated with original PET-CT images of both common and uncommon cancer cases, each of the clinical applications is accompanied by a concise explanation of the history, findings and impression of the PET-CT case.
