Because IMRT can deliver high-dose radiation to a target with a reduced dose to the surrounding organs, it can improve the local control rate and reduce toxicities associated with radiation therapy. Since IMRT began being used in the mid-1990s, a large volume of clinical evidence of the advantages of IMRT has been collected. However, treatment planning and quality assurance (QA) of IMRT are complicated and difficult for the clinician and the medical physicist. This book, by authors renowned for their expertise in their fields, provides cumulative clinical evidence and appropriate techniques for IMRT for the clinician and the physicist. Part I deals with the foundations and techniques, history, principles, QA, treatment planning, radiobiology and related aspects of IMRT. Part II covers clinical applications with several case studies, describing contouring and dose distribution with clinical results along with descriptions of indications and a review of clinical evidence for each tumor site. The information presented in this book serves as a valuable resource for the practicing clinician and physicist. 606 $aRadiotherapy 606 $aOncology   606 $aMedical physics 606 $aRadiation 606 $aRadiotherapy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H29056 606 $aOncology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33160 606 $aMedical and Radiation Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P27060 615 0$aRadiotherapy. 615 0$aOncology  . 615 0$aMedical physics. 615 0$aRadiation. 615 14$aRadiotherapy. 615 24$aOncology. 615 24$aMedical and Radiation Physics. 676 $a610 676 $a610.153 676 $a615842 676 $a616994 702 $aNishimura$b Yasumasa$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKomaki$b Ritsuko$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300240703321 996 $aIntensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy$91866852 997 $aUNINA
