This comprehensive synopsis summarizes the most relevant information obtained from a
systematic analysis of studies of the last decade on radiation proctitis, one of the most feared …

For decades, dose-volume information for segmented anatomy has provided the essential
data for correlating radiotherapy dosimetry with treatment-induced complications. Dose …

Abstract Background and Purpose Associations between dose and rectal toxicity in prostate
radiotherapy are generally poorly understood. Evaluating spatial dose distributions to the …

Abstract Background Dose-surface maps (DSMs) are an increasingly popular tool to
evaluate spatial dose-outcome relationships for the rectum. Recently, DSM addition has …

Purpose We aimed to assess the robustness of accumulated dose distributions for inter-
fractional changes in passive carbon-ion radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer. Methods Ninety …

Background and purpose Significant dose deviations have been reported between planned
(DP) and accumulated (DA) dose in prostate radiotherapy. This study aimed to develop …

Multi-criteria optimization (MCO) function has been available on commercial radiotherapy
(RT) treatment planning systems to improve plan quality; however, no study has compared …

Purpose In radiotherapy (RT), the planning CT (pCT) is commonly used to plan the full RT‐
course. Due to organ deformation and motion, the organ shapes seen at the pCT will not be …

Design of clinical trials and definition of new standards of care in radiotherapy have
historically been driven by the balance between doses delivered to the target volume …

Purpose This study aims to address the lack of spatial dose comparisons of planned and
delivered rectal doses during prostate radiotherapy by using dose‐surface maps (DSMs) to …
