With the development of new treatment strategies and rapid advancement of radiation technology, it is crucial for radiation oncologists to maintain and refine their knowledge and skills. Dedicated exclusively to adult CNS radiation oncology, this textbook explores CNS tumors ranging from the common to the esoteric as well as secondary cancers of metastatic origin. The first half of the book is organized anatomically: tumors of the brain, spinal cord, leptomeninges, optic pathway, ocular choroid, and skull base. The second half covers primary CNS lymphoma, rare CNS tumors, metastatic brain disease, vascular conditions of the CNS, radiation-associated complications, and radiation modalities. This new edition is updated throughout and includes several new chapters, including: palliative radiation therapy for leptomeningeal disease, preoperative treatment for brain metastases, advanced neuroimaging for brain tumors, and MR-LINAC for brain tumors. Each chapter provides guidance on treatment field design, target delineation, and normal critical structure tolerance constraints in the context of the disease being treated. Learning objectives, case studies, and Self-Assessment questions and answers are incorporated throughout the book. This is an ideal guide for radiation oncologists, residents, and fellows, and medical students may also find value in the text. 606 $aMedical radiology 606 $aOncology 606 $aNeurology 606 $aRadiation Oncology 606 $aOncology 606 $aNeurology 615 0$aMedical radiology. 615 0$aOncology. 615 0$aNeurology. 615 14$aRadiation Oncology. 615 24$aOncology. 615 24$aNeurology. 676 $a616.0757 676 $a616.994 700 $aChang$b Eric L$01777624 701 $aBrown$b Paul D$01777625 701 $aLo$b Simon S$01777626 701 $aSahgal$b Arjun$01777473 701 $aSuh$b John H$01777627 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910913795503321 996 $aAdult CNS Radiation Oncology$94299226 997 $aUNINA
