Announcements History

(2/24/19) RadOncQuestions is excited to announce a formal build-out of our "Radiation and Cancer Biology" and "Radiation Physics" sections. Over the next 2 months we will be significantly expanding the number of questions on these two topics. We aim to add ~400 Radiation and Cancer Biology questions and ~400 Radiation Physics questions. These will be added on a rolling basis and will be included in the general question bank at no extra charge to current or new subscribers. The new question content will be guided by the ASTRO Radiation Physics Curriculum and the ASTRO Radiation Biology Curriculum Guidelines. Content will reference high-yield study resources including McDermott and Orton's The Physics & Technology of Radiation Therapy 2nd ed, Khan and Gibbons Khan's The Physics of Radiation Therapy 5th ed, and Hall and Giaccia's Radiobiology for the Radiologist 8th ed. Additional cancer biology questions will reference other resources identified by our team of editors. We look forward to bringing this content to our resident users in time for the 2019 board exam cycle. In addition, we look forward to critical comments and feedback on the new questions to help refine and improve the content.
