The degree of radiation damage depends on multiple factors such as the total radiation dose, fractionation, dose rate, volume of the lungs receiving a specified dose and beam arrangement [56].
The regimen comprised a total dose of 50 or 60 Gy with a fractionation dose of 2 Gy five times a week.
More recently, the development of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) has led to the integration of accelerated fractionation, dose escalation, and concurrent chemotherapy in the treatment of BOT SCC 15– 15.
Conversely to these theoretical extrapolations the same author reports further experimental data [ 45] which show contradictory results, in particular reliability of the LQ model for spinal cord as late reacting tissue with a fractionation dose up to 10 Gy.
Similar(56)
The principle advantage of IMRT + SIB is that it integrates accelerated fractionation and dose escalation with concurrent chemotherapy, thereby delivering a higher daily dose to gross tumor.
Conventional fractionation (single dose 1.8-2 Gy) was used in all cases.
We explore the evidence for total dose; fractionation; fraction size; the effects of a gap in treatment; and scheduling of radiation in SCRT.
These were fractionation of the dose and two sequential high-dose treatments.
For combination of modalities and different fractionation schemes, the dose has to be recalculated to the BED dose, corresponding to a 2Gy radiation fraction.
Using equation (1), the time-dose fractionation parameters were incorporated to transform the conventional dose to BED at each conventional dose level.
For recurrence, generally a more restrictive fractionation concept (Equivalent dose in 2 Gy fractions (EQD2 < 40 Gy) was used.
