Normal tissue complication models for clinically relevant acute esophagitis (≥ grade 2) in patients treated with dose differentiated accelerated radiotherapy (DART-bid)
BACKGROUND One of the primary dose-limiting toxicities during thoracic irradiation is acute esophagitis (AE). The aim of this study is to investigate dosimetric and clinical predictors for AE grade ≥ 2 in patients treated with accelerated radiotherapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS AND METHODS 66 NSCLC patients were included in the present analysis: 4 stage ...
متن کاملComparing of different normal tissue complication probability models for plan evaluation of radical radiotherapy for esophageal cancer
Introduction: Chemoradiation is a well-established protocol for management of localized esophageal cancer. However, some early and late toxicities are associated with this therapy. Plan evaluation in term of normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) may help clinicians to tailor this therapy more individually. Given the variety of present radiobiological models, the choice...
متن کاملDosimetric and clinical predictors of acute esophagitis in lung cancer patients in Turkey treated with radiotherapy.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical and dosimetric factors associated with acute esophagitis (AE) in lung cancer patients treated with conformal radiotherapy (RT) in Turkey. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this retrospective review 104 lung cancer patients were examined. Esophagitis grades were verified weekly during treatment, and at 1 week, and 1 and 2 months afterwa...
متن کاملUse of normal tissue complication probability models in the clinic.
The Quantitative Analysis of Normal Tissue Effects in the Clinic (QUANTEC) review summarizes the currently available three-dimensional dose/volume/outcome data to update and refine the normal tissue dose/volume tolerance guidelines provided by the classic Emami et al. paper published in 1991. A "clinician's view" on using the QUANTEC information in a responsible manner is presented along with a...
متن کاملA prospective radiobiological study of acute esophagitis and swallowing dysfunction in head-and-neck radiotherapy
Introduction: Esophagitis is one of the main causes of swallowing dysfunction after radiation therapy (RT) for head and neck cancer (HNC).It significantly affects patients’ quality of life as well as having a potentially negative impact on their long term survival. However, little has been investigated on the dose-response and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) of es...
