The dose-response of the anal sphincter region--an analysis of data from the MRC RT01 trial.
PURPOSE: Most studies investigating the dose-response of the rectum focus on rectal bleeding. However, it has been reported that other symptoms such as urgency or sphincter control have a large impact on quality-of-life and that different symptoms are related to the dose to different parts of the an...
