Radiation medicine. A practical guide for the medical expert

This book presents the current state of knowledge of 'traditional' radiation medicine, which is now classified into the three different disciplines of X-ray diagnostics, nuclear medicine and radiation therapy. An interdisciplinary approach has been selected because of the fact that these three disciplines tend to overlap and should be regarded from an interdisciplinary view. Renowned scientists have contributed to make the book current and comprehensive, so that students and medical practicioners will be able at a glance to find the information required. This is made even easier by the use of marginalia. (orig.)
