Synopsis

The central purpose of nanoparticle enhanced radiotherapy (NPRT) is to more precisely control where the radiation dose is to be delivered, desirably with subcellular precision. The contents of this text covers the rationale and fundamental principles of NPRT, optimal nanoparticle size, concentrations and clinical applications. This volume will serve as a resource for researchers, educators and industry.
