Complication probability models for radiation-induced heart valvular dysfunction: do heart-lung interactions play a role?

Complication probability models for radiation-induced heart valvular dysfunction: do heart-lung interactions play a role?

The purpose of this study is to compare different normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models for predicting heart valve dysfunction (RVD) following thoracic irradiation.All patients from our institutional Hodgkin lymphoma survivors database with analyzable datasets were included (n = 90)....
