Abstract
The textbook ‘Particle Therapy Technology for Safe Treatment’ provides readers with a comprehensive overview of the complex technology that makes up particle therapy. Authored by world-renowned particle accelerator and particle beam physicist Dr Jay Flanz, the book explains key particle therapy parameters and underlying physics concepts, alongside useful practical examples of how to ensure the safest clinical implementation of particle therapy.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences (JMRS) is an international and multidisciplinary peer-reviewed journal that accepts manuscripts related to medical imaging / diagnostic radiography, radiation therapy, nuclear medicine, medical ultrasound / sonography, and the complementary disciplines of medical physics, radiology, radiation oncology, nursing, psychology and sociology. Manuscripts may take the form of: original articles, review articles, commentary articles, technical evaluations, case series and case studies. JMRS promotes excellence in international medical radiation science by the publication of contemporary and advanced research that encourages the adoption of the best clinical, scientific and educational practices in international communities. JMRS is the official professional journal of the Australian Society of Medical Imaging and Radiation Therapy (ASMIRT) and the New Zealand Institute of Medical Radiation Technology (NZIMRT).
