“This is an excellent review of the Radiation Oncology which is complete and comprehensive in scope. … I highly recommend this book as a stand-alone text and review for the Radiation Physics and Radiation Oncology clinical board exams. Residents will find this book a good review and reference book for training. Students of medical physics can also benefit here.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, July, 2015)
“The book meets its goal of providing the reader with a ‘practical and user-friendly means for self-assessment and revision’ in the area of radiation oncology. I consider this book a welcome addition to my scientific library, therefore I recommend “Radiation oncology: a MCQ and case study-based review’ to medical physicists, both registrars and experienced, with interest in clinical radiation oncology.” (Loredana G. Marcu, Australasian Physical & Engineering Sciences in Medicine, Vol. 35, 2012)
