Machine learning for normal tissue complication probability prediction: Predictive power with versatility and easy implementation

Background and purpose: A popular Normal tissue Complication (NTCP) model deployed to predict radiotherapy (RT) toxicity is the Lyman-Burman Kutcher (LKB) model of tissue complication. Despite the LKB model’s popularity, it can suffer from numerical instability and considers only the generalized mea...
