Opis
The late John Jack Fowler was a busy radiation biology researcher and teacher who wrote 581 papers over the last 65 plus years. He also received nearly every honour the medical physics field can bestow. This book sums up the key concepts relating to optimum fractionation in radiation therapy that interested him throughout his life. Just under 100 pages in length, this book is a quick, informative, and enjoyable read.
