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
