Summary I

• Technical developments in RT → less severe G3/G4 morbidity

Focus to milder and moderate G1/G2 morbidity and impact on QoL,

PRO are especially sensitive

• Physician assessed CTCAE morbidity has a wide range of interpretation

and therefore a low inter-rater reliability

(especially in mild to moderate morbidity)

• Low associations between physician assessed and patient reported

morbidity are consistently described in literature

• Both provide valuable information → combined reports or a collaborative

approach provide a more accurate understanding of morbidity
