Purpose: To define clinical and dosimetric parameters correlated with the risk of clinically
relevant radiation pneumonitis (RP) after thoracic radiotherapy. Methods and Materials …

Abstract Purpose To derive Normal Tissue Complication Probability (NTCP) models for
severe patterns of early radiological radiation-induced lung injury (RRLI) in patients treated …

The issue of toxicity is a primary concern for chest irradiation, because it is a dose-limiting
toxicity and because in some circumstances it can alleviate the survival benefit of radiation …

Purpose: To assess the utility of dosimetric/functional metrics as predictors of symptomatic
radiation pneumonitis using receiver operating characteristic curves. Methods: Between …

Purpose: To assess the impact of lung dose on lethal pulmonary complications (LPCs) in a
single-center group of patients with hematologic malignancies treated with total body …

Purpose We aimed to predict and compare radiation-induced, organ-specific, secondary
solid-tumor occurrence risks from conventional total body irradiation (TBI) and total marrow …

OBJECTIVE: To fit four different NTCP (Normal Tissue Complication Probability) models to
prospectively collected data on short-term pulmonary complications following breast cancer …

This work aims to evaluate the predictive strength of the relative seriality, parallel and Lyman–
Kutcher–Burman (LKB) normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models regarding the …

In this issue, Yorke et al.(1) from the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center describe an
association between the dosimetric parameters from the lung dose–volume histogram …
