Radiology, 1978
Radiation therapy is often hampered in important body regions by the need to transit sensitive normal tissues which act as dose-limiting barriers. Computer-controlled radiation therapy permits the simultaneous variation of multiple treatment parameters during irradiation of the patient, producing improved dose distributions with the potential for ...
