The book explores the transformative role of radiation therapy in managing benign disorders, offering a comprehensive guide for clinicians and researchers alike. Traditionally associated with cancer treatment, radiation therapy's potential in addressing benign conditions such as keloids, arteriovenous malformations, and inflammatory disorders is often overlooked. This volume aims to bridge this knowledge gap, providing evidence-based insights and practical guidance on the application of precision radiotherapy techniques.
The chapters delve into key topics include the mechanisms of action, delivery techniques, and dosage considerations for various benign conditions. The book also addresses critical questions such as the safety profiles and cost-effectiveness of radiation therapy in non-malignant scenarios. Contributions from leading experts provide a balanced mix of theoretical perspectives and practical case studies, making this a must-read for those seeking to expand their understanding of radiation therapy beyond oncology.
The book is an essential read for radiation oncologists, medical physicists, and oncology trainees seeking to expand their practice beyond cancer care. It also serves as a valuable resource for dermatologists, rheumatologists, ENT specialists, and orthopedists interested in interdisciplinary collaboration.
