Title: Essential Textbook for the Oral Boards
Review: Having just taken the ABR oral board exam, I can say with confidence that I would not have passed the head-and-neck section had I not known this book inside out. Examiners still expect you to know how to draw and know the field borders for conventional 2-D radiation fields for sites such as larynx, hypopharynx, oral cavity, etc. The pictures/photos/portals in this text are extremely useful and this textbook is therefore recommended without reservation for radiation oncology residents, especially as preparation for the oral exam. As an aside, it is updated and does contain info on IMRT as well, which is useful for all sites but particularly nasopharynx and oropharynx.
