A textbook for a senior or graduate course in medical or health physics. Students are assumed to be familiar with the radiation-producing devices used in radiation oncology. The second volume corrects some errors detected in the 1998 first, and adds discussions of intensity modulated radiation therapy, CT room design, the design of direct shielded doors, and other topics.
