Background and purpose: Short course radiotherapy (SCRT) has a low biological prescription dose. Rectal cancer has a dose response relationship and moderate α/β ratio (∼5). We hypothesise hypofractionated dose escalation has radiobiological advantages. We assessed in-silico dose escalation to the pr...
