Conclusions (1)

Literature shows that:

Margin width is related to

probability

that residual tumor is left in situ, but

NOT to the

amount

of tumor left in situ !

Higher boost dose results in lower LR, especially in case of LARGE

VOLUME

BCT with boost for focally involved margins yields acceptable LR of about

3% at 5 yrs
