About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
"This book is devoted to understanding the biological aspects of targeted radiotherapy and discusses in depth the various targeting agents as well as the radiopharmaceuticals used in targeted therapy. … Physicians, physicians in training, and physicists who use radionuclide targeted agents in the specialties of radiation oncology, medical oncology, and nuclear medicine are the intended audience. … Overall this is a very informative book for physicians particularly interested in the biological aspects of targeted radiotherapy." (James G. Douglas, Doody’s Review Service, November, 2009)
