IAEA, Vienna, 2005, - 696 p. (Анг. язык)
This handbook aims at providing the basis for the education of
medical physicists initiating their university studies in the
field. It includes the recent advances in radiotherapy techniques;
however, it is not designed to replace the large number of
textbooks available on radiotherapy physics, which will still be
necessary to deepen knowledge in the specific topics reviewed here.
It is expected that this handbook will successfully fill a gap in
the teaching material for medical radiation physics, providing in a
single manageable volume the largest possible coverage available
today. Its wide dissemination by the IAEA will contribute to the
harmonization of education in the field and will be of value to
newcomers as well as to those preparing for their certification as
medical physicists, radiation oncologists, medical dosimetrists and
radiotherapy technologists.
