Radiotherapy Treatment Planning: Linear-Quadratic Radiobiology

By J Donald Chapman, Alan E Nahum, Alan E. Nahum, et al.

Book Overview

This volume describes tumor cell inactivation from a radiation physics perspective and offers appropriate linear-quadratic parameters for modeling tumor and normal tissue responses. It describes cell killing by radiation from two independent mechanisms: alpha and beta. The authors emphasize the biophysical factors associated with radiation cell
