Radiotherapy is used in> 50% of patients with cancer, both for curative and palliative
purposes. Radiotherapy uses ionizing radiation to target and kill tumour tissue, but normal …

Mathematical models of normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) able to robustly
predict radiation-induced morbidities (RIM) play an essential role in the identification of a …

Simple Summary Side effects caused by the concomitant irradiation of normal tissue during
radiotherapy for cancer treatment can negatively affect the patient's quality of life and limit …

Purpose Radiation pneumonitis (RP) is commonly associated with thoracic radiation
therapy, and its incidence is related to dose and volume of the normal lung in the path of …

Radiatio ni nduced lung injury (RILI) that is usually divided into an early radiatio ni nduced
pneumonitis (RIP) and late chronic radiatio ni nduced lung fibrosis (RILF) remains a …

Simple Summary The pathophysiology of radiation pneumonitis (RP) after thoracic cancer
radiation treatments is still not completely understood although the identification of …

Thoracic radiation therapy (RT) is often associated with lung side effects, whose etiology is
still controversial. Our aim was to explore correlations between local dose in the thoracic …

In radiation oncology, the need for a modern Normal Tissue Complication Probability
(NTCP) philosophy to include voxel-based evidence on organ radio-sensitivity (RS) has …

Purpose To correlate radiation dose to the risk of severe radiologically-evident radiation-
induced lung injury (RRLI) using voxel-by-voxel analysis of the follow-up computed …

Background and purpose The present study investigates the extent and appearance of
radiologic injury in the lung after radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) …
