Radiation Therapy Planning

2nd Edition by Gunilla Bentel

OMP Review: Although the book focuses on 3D planning techniques rather than modern IMRT/VMAT planning, Bentel's radiation therapy planning remains relevant today. This book covers all you will ever want to know about MU calculation, field design, couch kicks, collimator rotations, and field matching.

Khan's Treatment Planning in Radiation Oncology

4th Edition by Faiz M. Khan, John P. Gibbons and Paul W. Sperduto

OMP Review: This is OMP managing editor Max's favorite radiation oncology text. The book covers modern treatment techniques including treatment planning system operation, inverse planning (IMRT/VMAT), electron planning, proton therapy and modern image guidance techniques. It also provides disease specific information for a variety of treatment sites at a level appropriate for a physicist or other non-oncologist staff.
