  • About this book

  • ​This book highlights and analyses the strengths, weaknesses and assumptions of the theoretical developments
  • It acts as an adjunct to other resources which provide tabular forms of energy loss data but do not explore in any depth the theory leading to the calculation of these data
  • The book congregates all of the advanced knowledge required in the development of the theory in its medical applications in a single and unmatched resource

Medical Radiation Dosimetry: Theory of Charged Particle Collision Energy Loss provides a uniquely required advanced, comprehensive and definitive theoretical description of the physics of charged particle collision energy loss and the role that it plays in the clinical radiation dosimetry resulting from exposure to ionising radiation.

Medical Radiation Dosimetry: Theory of Charged Particle Collision Energy Loss is both an advanced mathematical and physics treatise and an essential reference volume for the medical physics graduate student and the medical radiation physicist working in the field of clinical and research radiation dosimetry. It will assist both audiences in both the understanding of the genesis of the numerical data provided in multiple technical reports and publications, and of the limitations of these data.
