Radiotherapy using fast electrons, whether alone or in combination
with high-voltage, has met with increasing interest in the last few
years. This book provides a useful account of the present state of
knowledge and critically discusses where an improvement of results
is certain or prob able - in contrast to results with radiotherapy
using photons alone. The work also considers additional
improvements which might be expected to accrue from past experience
and particular attention is paid to the nature and possible dangers
of electron therapy. Bern, August 1980 A. Zuppinger Contents
