He is a board‑certified medical physicist and has taught radiation oncology residents for 20 years within the programs at Memorial Sloan Kettering, Johns Hopkins, and the University of Washington. He has received the Educator of the Year award five times. He has published over 180 research articles and is a frequent invited speaker at national and international venues. He serves in volunteer capacities in the AAPM and ASTRO and has served on the Board of Directors of both organizations. He is a Fellow of the AAPM, AIMBE, and ASTRO.
Descriere
Primer on Radiation Oncology Physics: Video Tutorials with Textbook and Problems, now in its Second Edition, provides over 60 tutorial videos (each 15-20 minutes in length) with a companion text and is the most complete and effective introduction to medical physics available.
Recenzii
"Primer on Radiation Oncology Physics by Eric Ford is an excellent textbook for diverse trainees in radiation oncology who take the first course in radiation therapy physics. It is also valuable to medical physics graduate students and residents as a refresher and review resource. The book is ideally suited for new teaching models with interactive videos and extensive problem sets, and it directly meets the educational needs of radiation oncology professionals with diverse backgrounds."
–Minsong Cao, University of California, Los Angeles, USA, in Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, March 2021, 22(3):288–289
"Ford (Univ. of Washington School of Medicine) has developed a highly readable textbook that spans basic chemistry/physics to address the practical aspects of radiation therapy. Each of the 27 chapters is short, well organized, and can be read either in sequence or as stand-alone reference material. The important points in each chapter are easy to spot as key concepts are printed in bold. While many of the figures are hand drawn, they are clear, simple, and nicely complement the text. In addition to a wealth of practical information about topics such as dose measurements and quality assurance, this textbook also highlights some of the cutting-edge technologies that are currently entering the field. . . . each chapter features a series of problem sets of varying difficulty, making this a useful resource for both graduate students and residents in medical physics. Also noteworthy is the publisher's supporting website where 60 interactive videos provide useful tutorials, each narrated by Ford and including comprehension quizzes, correlated to the chapters of the volume. Physics is a notoriously difficult topic to teach to an audience of students arriving with different backgrounds. The particular strength of this textbook is its accessibility to nonexperts."
