Description:
The primary objective
of this book is to teach residents, fellows, and clinicians in
radiation oncology how to incorporate intensity modulated
radiation therapy (IMRT) into their practice. IMRT has proven
to be an extremely effective treatment modality for head and
neck cancers. It is now being used effectively in other sites,
including, prostate, breast, lung, gynecological, the cervix, the
central nervous system, and lymph nodes. The book will
provide in a consistent format an overview of the natural
course, lymph node spread, diagnostic criteria, and
therapeutic options for each cancer subsite.
