Description
This book provides a first authoritative text on radiochromic film, covering the basic principles, technology advances, practical methods, and applications. It focuses on practical uses of radiochromic film in radiation dosimetry for diagnostic x-rays, brachytherapy, radiosurgery, external beam therapies (photon, electron, protons), stereotactic body radiotherapy, intensity-modulated radiotherapy, and other emerging radiation technologies. The expert authors address basic concepts, advantages, and the main applications including kilovoltage, brachytherapy, megavoltage, electron beam, proton beam, skin dose, in vivo dosimetry, postal and clinical trial dosimetry. The final chapters discuss the state of the art in microbeam, synchrotron radiation, and ultraviolet radiation dosimetry.
Reviews
I love my books for my Radiology Classes versus renting or on-line editions. My books are used as I write notes, highlight important information for myself, underline instructors points, and underline (with a different color) what was on our tests, and those books are perfectly fine. I am almost finished with the Radiology Program and this textbook that is required for our Pathology class is the pits! I have opened this book a total of 3 times and the first few pages have fallen out! I don’t believe that the printing company had anything to do with the binding of the book. For the cost of this book, one would believe that they would receive a quality product as well. Certainly not worth the money paid.
