Background and purpose: For lung cancer patients treated with radiotherapy, radiation dose to the heart has been associated with overall survival, with volumetric dose statistics widely presented. However, critical cardiac structures are present on t

Purpose: Late gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity after radiotherapy for prostate cancer may have significant impact on the cancer survivor's quality of life. To date, little is known about local dose-effects after modern radiotherapy including hypofracti
