Prediction of Pituitary Gland Complications by LKB and Log-Logistic Radiobiological Models in 3D Conformal Radiation Therapy of Head and Neck Tumors

Prediction of Pituitary Gland Complications by LKB and Log-Logistic Radiobiological Models in 3D Conformal Radiation Therapy of Head and Neck Tumors

Introduction: The pituitary gland is frequently irradiated during radiation therapy of head and neck tumors which can influence the quality of life of the patients after radiation therapy. This study aimed to estimate the normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) for the pituitary gland in head...
