Introduction to Radiobiology by Tubiana

By Tubiana

This textbook covers all points of radiation, radiotherapy and their results. The publication, first and foremost released in France, has been up-to-date and extended during this English model. It encompasses a thorough dialogue of modern advances, resembling a greater realizing of the molecular foundation of mobile results and mobile radiosensitivity. there's a research of the mechanmism in which dose and total period of radiotherapy can introoduce differential results among basic and neoplastic tissues and up to date facts on radiocarcinogenesis in guy and experimental animals is equipped.

Multi-modal imaging functions will mentioned, alongside with up-converting FI by utilizing lanthanide oxide nanoparticles.

Atlas and Anatomy of PET/MRI, PET/CT and SPECT/CT

This atlas showcases cross-sectional anatomy for the right kind interpretation of pictures generated from PET/MRI, PET/CT, and SPECT/CT functions. Hybrid imaging is on the leading edge of nuclear and molecular imaging and complements information acquisition for the needs of prognosis and remedy. Simultaneous evaluate of anatomic and metabolic information regarding general and irregular techniques addresses complicated scientific questions and increases the extent of self assurance of the experiment interpretation.
