LEARNER OUTCOMES:
  • Discuss basic factors in tumor and normal tissue dose response (dose-rate; re-oxygenation; acute vs. late response; and the dose-volume effect).
  • Explain alternative quantitative statements of normal-tissue tolerance, including dose-volume constraints, normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models, and the generalized equivalent uniform dose.
  • Explain how the models and data should be used in IMRT treatment planning.
