Journal ArticleDOI

Use of normal tissue complication probability models in the clinic.

TL;DR: 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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tomotherapy: A new concept for the delivery of dynamic conformal radiotherapy

TL;DR: Tomotherapy, literally "slice therapy," is a proposal for the delivery of radiation therapy with intensity-modulated strips of radiation, which employs a linear accelerator, or another radiation-emitting device, which would be mounted on a ring gantry like a CT scanner.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative Analyses of Normal Tissue Effects in the Clinic (QUANTEC): An Introduction to the Scientific Issues

TL;DR: Clinical limitations to the current knowledge base include the need for more data on the effect of patient-related cofactors, interactions between dose distribution and cytotoxic or molecular targeted agents, and theeffect of dose fractions and overall treatment time in relation to nonuniform dose distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI

CERR: A computational environment for radiotherapy research

TL;DR: CERR provides a powerful, convenient, and common framework which allows researchers to use common patient data sets, and compare and share research results.
