Foreword
At a time when radiotherapy is undergoing profound changes considerable efforts
have been made to give hadron therapy the place it deserves in the battle against can-
cer. For too many years and in many countries, numerous particle therapy programmes
have remained at the level of discussion only: indeed, uncertainties surrounding their real
therapeutic indices and fears about a low cost/benefit ratio have led many national health
authorities to remain careful about investing in these technologies. However, recent, sig-
nificant developments in both the diagnostic and therapeutic spheres, linked to hadrons in
a direct or indirect manner, have propelled major institutions and laboratories involved in
translational and clinical research to intensify their R&D programmes on particle therapy.
To be effective, this evolution requires an intense and continuous exchange of informa-
tion and educational programmes among the various scientific communities. The main
objective of this textbook is to be part of this effort both by strengthening the knowledge
of readers in their own field of expertise (e.g., biology, physics and clinics) and by increas-
ing their familiarity with the know-how developed in the other domains of hadron therapy
with which they are called to interact and collaborate.
Towards this aim, the first part of this textbook places hadrons in their historical, bio-
logical and technological contexts. In the second part, particular emphasis has been given
to the interactions between imaging and particle therapy, as well as to the advantages that
can be expected from multi-disciplinary collaborative network in this domain. The most
recent developments in clinical practice have been described in depth, with special atten-
tion paid to various examples of hadron therapy indications, also in consideration of the
expected risks of complications in normal tissues and to issues related to health economics.
The final section is dedicated to various future projections, and revisits a number of
fundamental aspects in precision medicine and future technologies. We hope the exhaus-
tive review of the most burning challenges in radiotherapy that concludes the textbook will
help increase understanding of the real dimension and place of radiation sciences in this
era of globalisation.
