Produktbeschreibung

This comprehensive volume demonstrates how the unique physicochemical properties of nanoparticles lead to novel strategies for cancer treatment and detection. After an introduction to the first principles of radiation physics and radiation biology, the book discusses fabrication of nanoparticles, safety of nanoparticles, and the quantification of nanoparticle accumulation within tissues. Successive chapters highlight the computational and experimental techniques that underlie the use of nanoparticles for imaging and treating tumors. The book concludes with regulatory issues related to human use and a summary of envisioned clinical translation.
