A case-control study using motion-inclusive spatial dose-volume metrics to account for genito-urinary toxicity following high-precision radiotherapy for prostate cancer

Background and purpose: The risk of genitourinary (GU) toxicity is dose-limiting in radiotherapy (RT) for prostate cancer. This study investigated whether motion-inclusive spatial dose/volume metrics explain the GU toxicity manifesting after high-precision RT for prostate cancer. Material and method...
