| Popis: | The correlation between dose values from dose–volume histograms (DVHs) and dose values from dose–wall histograms (DWHs) of the rectum tissue of patient with uterine cervix cancer was determined. The minimum dose in 2 cm 3 in the high-dose region of the DVH is a good estimate of the dose in the rectum wall. |
