Reviewers from the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) describe it as an "impressive" and "valuable tool" for several groups: Compendium to Radiation Physics for Medical Physicists : For ease of study

: The book features 300 solved problems that use detailed equations, graphs, and step-by-step derivations to clarify difficult topics.

: It moves beyond abstract theory to the basic knowledge a medical physicist needs to function effectively within a multidisciplinary medical team.

: It details the physics of characteristic radiation, bremsstrahlung, and how these beams are produced in linear accelerators for modern radiotherapy.
