This book documents the evolution of this technology over 35 years to the current level of volumetric arc modulated therapy (VMAT). It covers every aspect of this radiation treatment technology, including the fundamentals of IMRT\/VMAT, basic principles and advanced processes for implementation. The physics of IMRT is followed by the clinical application in major disease sites such as central nervous system, head and neck, breast, lung, prostate and cervix. It also provides updated references on each component of IMRT\/VMAT. This book is written by leading experts in the field with extensive clinical experience in the practice and implementation of this technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eProvides comprehensive coverage of IMRT for radiation therapy students, dosimetrists, physicists, medical residents and radiation professionals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes up-to-date descriptions of current instrumentation and practises\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiagrams and images are included throughout to illustrate fundamental concepts and aid understanding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides extensive references for further reading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Indra J.
