The Impact of Tumor Biology on Cancer Treatment and Multidisciplinary Strategies
Te rapidly changing concepts in radiation oncology with the development of more precise - strumentation for delivery of radiation therapy and a greater emphasis on hypofractionation technologies require a very intimate knowledge of tumor biology and the infuence of various biologic factors on dose distribution within the tumor in terms of homogeneity as well as prev- tion of any late efects on normal tissue surrounding the tumor itself. Not only are these major factors in clinical practice but also the known factors of inhomogeneity of cancer cells, the impact of microenvironment in terms of radiation efect, and host factors make it mandatory to design therapeutic strategies to improve the o...
Basic Clinical Radiobiology
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.
Magnetic Particle Imaging
Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) is a novel imaging modality. In MPI superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles are used as tracer materials. The volume is the proceeding of the 2nd international workshop on magnetic particle imaging (IWMPI). The workshop aims at covering the status and recent developments of both, the instrumentation and the tracer material, as each of them is equally important in designing a well performing MPI. For instance, the current state of the art in magnetic coil design for MPI is discussed. With a new symmetrical arrangement of coils, a field-free line (FFL) can be produced that promises a significantly higher sensitivity compared with the standard arrangement for a FFP. Furthermore, the workshop aims at presenting results from phantom and pre-clinical studies.
Oxford Textbook of Cancer Biology
The study of the biology of tumours has grown to become markedly interdisciplinary, involving chemists, statisticians, epidemiologists, mathematicians, bioinformaticians, and computer scientists alongside biologists, geneticists, and clinicians. The Oxford Textbook of Cancer Biology brings together the most up-to-date developments from different branches of research into one coherent volume, providing a comprehensive and current account of this rapidly evolving field. Structured in eight sections, the book starts with a review of the development and biology of multi-cellular organisms, how they maintain a healthy homeostasis in an individual, and a description of the molecular basis of cance...
Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry between Imaging and Endoradiotherapy
This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue "Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry between Imaging and Radioendotherapy" that was published in Pharmaceuticals
Breast Cancer Radiation Therapy
The book provides, in a comprehensive yet concise way, essential information to improve the knowledge and skills of all healthcare providers involved in the treatment of patients with breast cancer. The content does not focus on general information that is widely available via different sources, but on technical aspects – “hands-on” daily practices and principles of radiation oncology that are not included in other books. Drawing on information taught in courses at e.g. the ESTRO School, as well as the authors’ broad clinical experience, the respective contributions reflect and share the expertise of leading experts in breast cancer radiation therapy, supported by sound data and evidence. Each chapter includes a short introduction summarizing the evidence in the literature and “pearls” (a short bullet-point summary), and is enriched by tables, figures and illustrations to provide a concise, easy-to-follow and appealing overview. The book, containing also useful electronic supplementary material, will be of interest to a wide range of readers, including radiation oncologists, radiation technicians, medical physicists, and others involved in breast cancer care.
Radiation Oncology
Radiation Oncology provides a comprehensive overview of radiotherapy for cancer treatment. It discusses brachytherapy, external radiation, and photodynamic therapy for different types of cancers, as well as dosimetry audits, which ensure that the accurate therapeutic dose is delivered to patients undergoing radiotherapy. The need of the hour for radiotherapy procedures that provide maximum clinical care with safety and efficacy and also enhance the advantage of treatment and diminish the risks of late complications.
