When interacting with colleagues, patients, and members of the public, medical physicists are frequently asked questions about radiation doses, clinical benefits, and biological risks of medical imaging. This book collects some of the latest data and understanding on these subjects into a single concise and well-organized volume and makes it accessible to a wide variety of potential readers. The editors and many of the chapter authors are from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Despite the variety of authors, the content is well-organized and fits together seamlessly.
