Typically these individuals are medical physicists with responsibilities for calibration and verification of beam delivery, quality assurance, and computerized treatment planning; however other individuals may also find the book useful. This book provides practical recommendations and guides the reader through the steps of the treatment process, focusing on practical details. This book is indexed.
