This book concisely reviews our current understanding of hypoxia,
molecular targeting, DNA repair, cancer stem cells, and tumor
pathophysiology, while also discussing novel strategies for putting
these findings into practice in daily clinical routine.
Radiotherapy is an important part of modern multimodal cancer
treatment, and the past several years have witnessed not only
substantial improvements in radiation techniques and the use of new
beam qualities, but also major strides in our understanding of
molecular tumor biology and tumor radiation response. Against this
backdrop, the book highlights recent efforts to identify reasonable
and clinically applicable biomarkers using broad-spectrum tissue
microarrays and high-throughput systems biology approaches like
genomics and epigenomics. In particular, it describes in detail how
such molecular information is now being exploited for diagnostic
imaging and imaging throughout treatment using the example of
positron emission tomography. By discussing all these issues in the
context of modern radiation oncology, the book provides a broad,
up-to-date overview of the molecular aspects of radiation oncology
that will hopefully foster its further optimization.
