Radiation dosimetry

"Radiation dosimetry has made great progress in the last decade, mainly because radiation therapy is much more widely used. Since the first edition, many new developments have been made in the basic methods for dosimetry, i.e., ionization chambers, TLD, chemical dosimeters, and photographic films. Radiation Dosimetry: Instrumentation and Methods, Second Edition brings to the reader these latest developments.". "Written at high level for medical physicists, engineers, and advanced dosimetrists, it concentrates only on developments during the last decade, relying on the first edition to provide the basics. Concise and up-to-date, Radiation Dosimetry: Instrumentation and Methods, Second Edition provides the latest methods, both practical and theoretical, to help the new generation of dosimetrists and medical physicists as well as those already established."--BOOK JACKET.
