Críticas

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 21-APR-08, Volume 71, Issue 1, Madelon Pijls-Johannesma, MSc, Maastricht Radiation Oncology (MAASTRO), Maastricht, The Netherlands -- "Overall, this is an excellent reference for any physicist's or physician's library. The numerous tables and clear high-quality diagrams and images accompanying the text help convey abstract concepts. A stated goal of the editors was to produce a book that presented an informative monograph on charged particle therapy to serve as an introduction for those new to this field and a useful resource for those involved in charged particle radiotherapy in the clinic. In my opinion, editors DeLaney and Kooy and the other authors have succeeded."-International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics
