Basic Clinical Radiobiology

Editat de Michael C. Joiner, Albert van der KogeJ. l
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 ian 2025
The sixth edition of this internationally successful text includes the many positive advances in radiation oncology that have occurred over the past decade, and which continue to keep radiation at the cutting edge of cancer therapy. As previously, a multi-national authorship includes some of the top radiation oncologists, biologists, and physicists from North America and Europe, who highlight the core principles of radiobiology.
