Activities | The radiobiology of hypofractionated treatments may differ considerably from that of standard fractionated treatments, in regards to repair, reoxygenation, dose-rate effects, volume effects, fraction size effects, etc. The working group will generate reports, including but not limited to, critically surveying the published data regarding:
- Tumor response: review of the effect of hypofractionation on local control.
- Normal tissue response: review of the effect of hypofractionation on normal tissue tolerances.
- Radiobiology of hypofractionated treatments.
- Clinical rationales for the diverse prescription schemes in current use (e.g. 20GyX3 vs 24GyX1).
- Standards for reporting outcome, including endpoints, defining/contouring of target and normal structures, dose definitions.
