Concepts and Trends in Medical Radiation Dosimetry: Proceedings of the SSD Summer School

This book presented state-of-the art  in solid state dosimetry with application to radiation medicine.  Fundamentals of dosimetry and relevance to radiation therapy , nuclear medicine and radiology followed by physics of operation and design of wide spectra of radiation detectors bubble detectors,  TLD, OSL,  fibre optic, film, RPL, semiconductor detectors, EPR, electronic dosimetry, microdosimetry and nanodosimetry.  Special focus of this book is in quality assurance in radiation therapy and modern radiation dosimetry for IMRT, VMAT, SRS, brachytherapy and particular high spatial resolution dosimetry.  Monte Carlo simulation  dosimetry concept  based on GEANT 4 toolkit with applications in  different aspects of medical dosimetry has been included. This book will be useful as a text for Universities with Medical and Health Physics programs and for radiation physics professionals for refreshment and advancing of their knowledge.
