It explains basic principles of pediatric radiation oncology, indications of radiation in various diseases, radiation dose and target volumes in brachytherapy and in external body radiation therapy, side effects of radiation therapy, and follow up protocol in an evidence based manner. It also briefly discusses other treatment modalities, including surgery and chemotherapy. The book also covers historical aspect of radiation therapy. It elaborates on how modern radiotherapy techniques have helped in reducing the side effects of the radiation (a major concern that leads to radiation defer in children) as compared to the previous years without compromising outcomes. It highlights various issues that makes pediatric radiation oncology more complex as compared to adult radiation therapy. It discusses some newer techniques of radiotherapy and particle therapy. The book will help radiotherapy/radiation oncology students and faculty, pediatric oncology students and oncologists to understand and practice pediatric radiation oncology in a better and evidence based manner. . 606 $aMedical radiology 606 $aOncology 606 $aPediatrics 606 $aRadiation Oncology 606 $aOncology 606 $aPediatrics 615 0$aMedical radiology. 615 0$aOncology. 615 0$aPediatrics. 615 14$aRadiation Oncology. 615 24$aOncology. 615 24$aPediatrics. 676 $a616.0757 676 $a616.994 700 $aMadan$b Renu$01829217 701 $aGoyal$b Shikha$01829218 701 $aMallick$b Supriya$01799666 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911011351703321 996 $aEvidence Based Practice in Pediatric Radiation Oncology$94398380 997 $aUNINA
