Modern brachytherapy is one of the most important oncological
treatment modalities requiring an integrated approach that utilizes
new technologies, advanced clinical imaging facilities, and a
thorough understanding of the radiobiological effects on different
tissues, the principles of physics, dosimetry techniques and
protocols, and clinical expertise. A complete overview of the
field, Comprehensive Brachytherapy: Physical and Clinical Aspects
is a landmark publication, presenting a detailed account of the
underlying physics, design, and implementation of the techniques,
along with practical guidance for practitioners. Bridging the gap
between research and application, this single source brings
together the technological basis, radiation dosimetry, quality
assurance, and fundamentals of brachytherapy. In addition, it
presents discussion of the most recent clinical practice in
brachytherapy including prostate, gynecology, breast, and other
clinical treatment sites. Along with exploring new clinical
protocols, it discusses major advances in imaging, robotics,
dosimetry, Monte Carlo-based dose calculation, and optimization.
