内容説明

Provides a review of recent developments in the field of drugs that suppress the body's immune system in response to a transplanted organ, thus preventing rejection.

内容説明

Radiotherapy continues to change and develop rapidly. Most clinical oncologists have a wide clinical practice and find it difficult to keep abreast of the many new developments in treatment methods. This volume addresses some of the most exciting growth areas of radiation oncology, both at a technical level and also in important aspects of clinical work. Together with Volume 1 and Volume 3 (in preparation) this book provides a comprehensive review of current practice in radiotherapy.
