NTCP models
• Burman (2001) published companion
paper using Emami consensus dose
volume data fitted to Lyman model
• Partial volume irradiation: Basis of
Lyman model
• Valid in simple treatments using
parallel opposed pair of beams with
homogeneous dose distribution
• Assumes
•
uniform dose D to Volume
fraction, v
•
zero dose to volume fraction = 1-v
