Modelling carcinogenesis after radiotherapy using Poisson statistics: implications for IMRT, protons and ions.
Current technical radiotherapy advances aim to (a) better conform the dose contours to cancers and (b) reduce the integral dose exposure and thereby minimise unnecessary dose exposure to normal tissues unaffected by the cancer. Various types of conformal and intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) u...
