A Pilot Study of Safer Radiation Dosage to the Heart and Its Subregions

A Pilot Study of Safer Radiation Dosage to the Heart and Its Subregions

<i>Background and Objectives:</i> The real impact of ionizing radiation on the heart and poorer overall survival for patients with non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unclear. This study aims to determine the safe dose constraints to the heart’s subregions that could prevent patie...
