Abstract:Purpose: A biologically motivated scheme to guide the determination of individualized dose distributions is developed from the Poisson tumor control probability (TCP) and linear‐quadratic (LQ) survival model. The method combines clinical experience, in the form of a reference treatment, with possibly patient‐specific information to help circumvent well‐known issues associated with outcome modeling. To illustrate the approach, isoeffect doses for populations of prostate cancer patients are compared. Method and … Show more
