Translational Radiation Oncology covers the principles of evidence-based medicine and applies them to the design of translational research. The book provides valuable discussions on the critical appraisal of published studies and recent developments in radiation oncology, allowing readers to learn how to evaluate the quality of such studies with respect to measuring outcomes and make effective use of all types of evidence. By reading this book, researchers have access to a practical approach to help them navigate challenging considerations in study design and implementation.
It is a valuable resource for researchers, oncologists and members of biomedical field who want to understand more about translational research applied to the field of radiation oncology. Translational medicine serves as an indispensable tool in grant writing and funding efforts, so understanding how to apply its principles to research is necessary to guarantee that results will be impactful to patients.
