Description of Radiation Oncology A MCQ and Case Study-Based Review


The aim of writing “Radiation Oncology: An MCQ and Case Study-Based Review” was to provide practicing radiation oncologists, residents, and medical students with a practical and user-friendly means for self-assessment and revision concerning the fundamental aspects of radiation physics, Radio-biology, and Clinical Radiation Oncology.

MCQs along with explanatory answers and case study-based questions in the book will encourage the readers to read the texts more thoroughly. The MCQs are considered a “great” revision tool as they support examines’ study for exams. We hope and wish “Radiation Oncology: An MCQ and Case Study Based-Review” will meet the need for a practical and up-to-date radiation oncology review book for residents, fellows, and clinicians of radiation, medical and surgical oncology, as well as for medical students, physicians, and medical physicists interested in clinical Radiation Oncology.
