Hey guys,

I hear the gold standard for radiobiology text for rad onc residents is Radiobiology for Radiologists. I've had a chance to look at it, and I thought the molecular bio stuff was a little weak (at least for someone like me who is doing this kind of research). Do you guys know of any other texts with an emphasis on the molecular aspects of radiobiology?

The molecular biology of radiobiology is an evolving field. I doubt that a good textbook exists. The primary literature will be your best bet. There are more than a few good reviews.

what exactly are miller's notes? the only thing I could find online was Walter and Miller's textbook of Radiotherapy. is this what you meant?
 
miller notes are a packet of notes/handouts from this guy richard miller who does a board review course. unless you scan them into pdf's you wont find it on the web, nor will you find them for sale by a publisher.
 
miller does review classes and I belive the new board questions are in bulk from him now. It certainly had info I only found in Miller.

So does anyone have a set of Miller's notes that they want to share, donate, or sell?
