Predictive modelling for late rectal and urinary toxicities after prostate radiotherapy using planned and delivered dose. (2022)
Journal Article
Knight, K., Panettieri, V., Dimmock, M., Tuan, J., Tan, H., Wright, C., & Ong, A. (2022). Predictive modelling for late rectal and urinary toxicities after prostate radiotherapy using planned and delivered dose. Frontiers in oncology, 1084311 - ?. https://doi.org/10.3389/fonc.2022.1084311

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) parameters derived from traditional 3D plans may not be ideal in defining toxicity outcomes for modern radiotherapy techniques. This study aimed to derive parameters of the Lyman-K... Read More about Predictive modelling for late rectal and urinary toxicities after prostate radiotherapy using planned and delivered dose..

Predictors of self-management in patients with chronic low back pain: a longitudinal study. (2022)
