Publisher's Synopsis
One of the most important technical advances in the field of radiation therapy was the introduction of three-dimensional treatment planning (3D RTP) in the application of the radiation dose. This technology facilitates an even more exact targeting of the tumour area, thereby improving treatment results while minimizing damage to healthy tissue.;This text examines the equipment involved in the technology of 3D RTP, techniques of patient immobilization, methods of radiation dose calculation, treatment plan evaluation and presents the critical techniques that deliver optimal outcomes.
