Text of Note

An expert team of clinicians have compiled this comprehensive textbook on intraoperative irradiation for those utilizing either intraoperative electrons or brachytherapy. Issues of basic science and physics are covered in addition to techniques indications and results by disease states.

Brachytherapy -- methods.

Cancer -- Intraoperative radiotherapy.
