This text presents case studies, drawn from a variety of disciplines including radiation oncology, a medical speciality that involves the controlled use of radiation to treat cancer. Together these illustrate the ways in which humanitarian engineering can address the acute global need for cancer care. Part of IOP Series in Global Health and Radiation Oncology.  aPractitioners, clinicians and professionals in radiation oncology and radiation therapy oriented toward global health.  aAlso available in print.  aMode of access: World Wide Web.  aSystem requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader, EPUB reader, or Kindle reader.  aEric Ford, PhD is a Professor, Director and Vice-Chair of Medical Physics at the University of Washington, Fred Hutch Cancer Center.
