This revised and updated handbook on Accelerated Partial Breast Radiation reviews the principles that underlie APBI, details a description of each possible technique, reviews clinical results and the incidence and management of treatment-related complications.
From the reviews of the second edition:
“This second edition progresses naturally from background on accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) and the basic science related to this treatment ... . The target audience includes radiation oncology providers: physicians, trainees, radiation nurse practitioners, and students. It also could be of service to other specialists such as surgeons and medical oncologists who care for breast cancer patients. The authors are nationally renowned for their expertise on this subject. ... This is an excellent textbook and resource for radiation oncologists in practice and in training.” (Ralph Ermoian, Doody’s Review Service, October, 2010)
