Describes the physics germane to the development of a particular form of clinical conformal radiotherapy called intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). This book is suitable for new research workers, PhD students, and practicing radiation physicists that require a thorough introduction to IMRT.

An examination of the history of the physics of tomographic radiology from its earliest beginnings to modern times. Topics covered range from transaxial emission tomography to multiple-film slice-focusing, 3D viewing and measurement.

The most important radiotherapy modality used today, intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), is the most technologically advanced radiotherapy cancer treatment available, rapidly replacing conformal and three-dimensional techniques. This work reviews applications of IMRT and shows how IMRT is used and how it may be used in the future.
