Medical Toxicology (What Do I Do Now Emergency Medicine)

Medical Toxicology (What Do I Do Now Emergency Medicine)

Part of the “What Do I Do Now: Emergency Medicine” series, Medical Toxicology is an interactive, case-based book that covers content not found in most general specialty textbooks, and gives readers the opportunity to prepare for board certification and recertification, and to gain medical toxicology expertise without the need to perform a deep dive into the literature. The 34 chapters go beyond the basics of common and dangerous toxicities and provide the next step of care for complicated cases, as well as backgrounds to the pathophysiology of severe overdoses. It also addresses multiple overdoses, poisonings, and envenomations and supplements the information and recommendations of a poison center or toxicologist by providing background reasoning when a deep dive into a particular topic is not possible. Readers who are medical students, residents, advanced practice providers, staff physicians in emergency departments, hospitalists, and critical care providers will all find the content in this book stimulating, interactive, and a reliable resource that replicates a curbside consult with an expert.

Dosimetry in Brachytherapy – An International Code of Practice for Secondary Standards Dosimetry Laboratories and Hospitals

Dosimetry in Brachytherapy – An International Code of Practice for Secondary Standards Dosimetry Laboratories and Hospitals

The brachytherapy process requires consistent reference dosimetry that is traceable to metrological primary standards and common procedures to be followed for reference dosimetry globally. The Code of Practice is addressed to both Secondary Standards Dosimetry Laboratories and hospitals. It fulfils the need for a systematic and internationally unified approach to the calibration and use of vented well-type re-entrant ionisation chambers in determining the strength of brachytherapy sources with intensities measurable by such detectors. The dosimetry formalism as well as common procedures for calibration, reference dosimetry, reference-class instrument assessment and commissioning of the well-type ionisation chamber system are provided.
