The “Journal of Contemporary Brachytherapy” is an international and multidisciplinary journal that will publish papers of original research as well as reviews of articles. Main subjects of the journal include: clinical brachytherapy, combined modality treatment, advances in radiobiology, hyperthermia and tumour biology, as well as physical aspects relevant to brachytherapy, particularly in the field of imaging, dosimetry and radiation therapy planning. Original contributions will include experimental studies of combined modality treatment, tumor sensitization and normal tissue protection, molecular radiation biology, and clinical investigations of cancer treatment in brachytherapy. Another field of interest will be the educational part of the journal.
“当代近距离放射治疗杂志”是一个国际和多学科的杂志，将发表原始研究的论文以及文章的评论。该杂志的主要主题包括:临床近距离放射治疗，联合治疗，放射生物学，热疗和肿瘤生物学的进展，以及与近距离放射治疗相关的物理方面，特别是在成像，剂量学和放射治疗计划领域。最初的贡献将包括联合治疗，肿瘤致敏和正常组织保护，分子放射生物学以及近距离放射治疗中癌症治疗的临床研究的实验研究。另一个感兴趣的领域将是期刊的教育部分。
