The material is thorough and begins with the fundamental physics and chemistry that are necessary to understand the effects of radiation on cells, continuing to cover the radiosensitivity of cells at various points of their mitotic cycles, the impact of oxygen levels in cells, radiation dose levels and effects, treatments and historical exposures, and much more. The text is generously supplemented with illustrations, photographs, and charts. Each chapter concludes with a 'summary of pertinent conclusions' which help to reinforce the key concepts covered. For students with the necessary background this is a very readable text, and it could be used for self-study or reference. In my case it supplements lectures that I find invaluable in learning the information and concepts that are conveyed. The first section of the book, comprising chapters 1 through 16, are intended for students of diagnostic radiology, nuclear medicine, and radiation oncology. The second section continues into more detail on clinical aspects of radiotherapy and treatment, for students of radiation oncology. The text is now in its 8th edition, updated in October 2017 by the original authors, Eric Hall of Columbia University, and Amato Giaccia of Stanford. The first edition of the book was issued in July 1972, nearly 47 years ago as I write this review. A particularly welcome feature of the hardcover version of the text that I purchased is that it includes (at no additional charge) an 'enhanced eBook' that can be downloaded and accessed from computer, tablet or phone. I have downloaded the text myself and it is completely equivalent to the hardcover and easily navigated, although personally I much prefer reading the textbook itself. Still, I have the book on my phone and should I find myself wanting to refer to it when away from my office or computer, it is right there with me and can be easily accessed and searched. This is considered to be one of the key reference texts for this subject material, and is regularly found on the bookshelves of professionals in the field. The longevity of this text and the fact that the authors have continued to keep it updated over the years give me great confidence in it as a foundation for my own studies and work in this area. Review: Not up to date despite new edition being published - This book is missing important information from recent clinical trials. This new edition was published in 2019, yet it's missing key (testable) info from trials from 2014 and earlier. If you are going to publish a new edition it needs to be updated. Chapter 26 amongst others needs updating ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #516,294 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #132 in Radiologic & Ultrasound Technology (Books) #215 in Radiology (Books) #269 in Oncology (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 51 Reviews | ## Images ![Radiobiology for the Radiologist - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QF-ykgrSL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For Students in Radiation Biology, Nuclear Medicine, Radiation Oncology *by P***A on February 1, 2019* This textbook was used for a graduate-level course I recently completed in Radiation Biology, part of a Masters Degree program in Radiation Health Physics.
