Consensus guideline
Radiation dose constraints for organs at risk in neuro-oncology; the European Particle Therapy Network consensus
Lambrecht M, Eekers DBP, Alapetite C, et al. · European Particle Therapy Network
DoseLab summary
European Particle Therapy Network consensus on dose constraints for brain and skull-base organs at risk in conventionally fractionated treatment, written in EQD2 with the endpoint behind each limit. Citation checked against Crossref; content not yet reviewed by DoseLab.
Why this is useful
One consensus table for nearly every brain organ at risk — including the hippocampus, pituitary, lacrimal gland and retina — with the endpoint behind each limit.
