Kwan Hoong Ng, PhD, FinstP, DABMP, received his MSc (medical physics) from the University of Aberdeen and PhD (medical physics) from the University of Malaya, Malaysia. He is certified by the American Board of Medical Physicists. Professor Ng was honoured as one of the top 50 medical physicists in the world by the International Organization of Medical Physics (IOMP) in 2013. He also received the International Day of Medical Physics Award in 2016. He has authored/co-authored over 230 papers in peer-reviewed journals, 25 book chapters and co-edited 5 books. Ngie Min Ung, PhD, MIPEM, MIPM, obtained Bachelor of Biomedical Engineering and Master of Medical Physics from the University of Malaya. He then completed his PhD at the University of Western Australia in collaboration with Genesis Cancer Care (formerly known as Perth Radiation Oncology). Dr. Ung is actively involved in medical physics teaching and research activities. To date, he has authored/co-authored over 70 peer-reviewed academic journal papers and supervised a total of 10 research PhD and master students to completion. Robin Hill PhD, MACPSEM, MAAPM received his MSc (Medical and Health Physics) from the University of Adelaide and PhD from the University of Sydney. He is actively engaged in radiation oncology medical physics research, teaching and clinical activities including volunteer involvement in several IAEA activities. Dr Hill has authored/co-authored more than 60 papers in peer-reviewed journals with a particular interest in therapeutic kilovoltage X-ray beam dosimetry. He is accredited in radiation oncology medical physics by the ACPSEM.
“This book is the third volume of a three-volume set that delves into medical physics. It presents a collection of problems and questions with answers and solutions on basic radiotherapy physics knowledge. The book consists of 10 large sections/chapters, 144 solved problems, and a bibliography. The book begins with the delivery equipment of standard conventional radiotherapy and transitions into treatment planning, special procedures, and radiobiology and radiation safety. The purpose of the book is to convey and emphasize basic radiotherapy physics concepts and their use in conventional radiation therapy treatments. The book executes this through problems and questions with provided answers and solutions for readers to practice and discover gaps in their knowledge. The book suits readers who have knowledge of the topic and seek further practice through problems and questions. The content and style are appropriate for young professionals in radiotherapy physics, including graduate students and medical physics residents, as well as radiation oncology residents who are preparing for their board certification examination. Medical dosimetrists and radiation therapy technologists will benefit as well. This volume plays an important role in the complete coverage of the subject. The solved problems and chapters on basic radiotherapy physics and its applications will undoubtedly benefit a wide audience.” —Dimitris Mihailidis, PhD (University of Pennsylvania, School of Medicine) in Doody’s Core Titles Review 2023.
