Radiation oncology refers to a medical field which utilizes a multidisciplinary approach for the treatment of cancer. It makes use of radiation therapy, which involves the treatment of patients with X-rays generated through electron accelerators. Particle therapy is an emerging technique of radiotherapy. A variety of solid cancers have been treated using protons and carbon ions. The physical properties of the charged particles help in avoiding damage to the normal tissues, as compared to the use of conventional X-rays.

Radiation oncology refers to a medical field which utilizes a multidisciplinary approach for the treatment of cancer. It makes use of radiation therapy, which involves the treatment of patients with X-rays generated through electron accelerators. Particle therapy is an emerging technique of radiotherapy. A variety of solid cancers have been treated using protons and carbon ions. The physical properties of the charged particles help in avoiding damage to the normal tissues, as compared to the use of conventional X-rays. This makes proton therapy a safe treatment option for pediatric tumors as well. The treatment and technology utilized in radiation oncology is improving rapidly, which have resulted in an increased number of positive outcomes for patients, as well as fast treatments with few side effects. This book aims to understand the clinical perspectives of radiation oncology. Also included herein is a detailed explanation of the various concepts and applications of this area of medicine.
