This revised, updated Second Edition reflects the past three years' many improvements in radiation treatment of malignancies. A new chapter covers intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT).

Summary: Concise, useful summary of the Perez textbook
Rating: 5
An excellent concise abstraction of the larger textbook "Principles and Practice of Radiation Oncology". The same scope of content is present, the salient facts are presented in point form with the most important references at the end of each chapter. Abundant diagrams and photographs supplement the text. An excellent companion to Principles and Practice of Radiation Oncology and particularly useful for senior residents and practicing radiation oncologists.
