IMRT has become a topic of tremendous importance within the last several years and is now being seriously investigated for its potential to improve the outcome of radiation therapy. According to E-Streams, "It would be a very useful book for graduate students and researchers in many disciplines including medical physics, biomedical engineering, radiology, radiotherapy, and clinical research. ⬦"
