Resources
This list of resources will assist educators in sampling the pool of references and study materials that pertain to medical imaging and radiation therapy. The resources list should be viewed as a snapshot of available materials. Omission of any one title is not intentional. Because the creation of literature and media related to the field is dynamic, educators are encouraged to search additional sources for recent updates, revisions and additions to this collection of titles.
