Now in its third edition, Practical Radiotherapy continues to keep pace with current and emerging technologies, patient pathways, and the rapidly expanding role of therapeutic radiographers.

Extensively revised and updated, this accessible book examines all the essential aspects of radiotherapy, from the physics and mathematics of radiation beams, to in-depth descriptions of the equipment used by radiotherapy practitioners, to new and expanded coverage of MR-linac and Halcyon technology, proton therapy, stereotactic body radiotherapy, sealed-source verification and quality assurance for MV equipment.

  • Covers all the core information essential to radiotherapy practice
  • Describes the major aspects of therapeutic radiography in a practical context
  • Includes images, diagrams, supplemental reading suggestions and more radiotherapy-specific examples
  • Features expanded coverage of legislation, advanced treatment delivery, flattening filter free treatment and more

Practical Radiotherapy is a valuable resource for radiotherapy and medical physics students, radiotherapists, therapeutic radiographers, radiation therapists, clinical oncologists and oncology nurses.
