AbstractList Chapters 1-4 provide an outline of medical linear accelerators, interaction properties of X-rays and electron beams, dosimetric equipment and methods used for therapeutic X-rays and electrons, and properties of X-ray beams from linear accelerators. [...] I am surprised to note that total body photon irradiation, one of the important treatment techniques used prior to bone marrow transplantation, has not been covered in any section.
