SU‐E‐T‐571: Prostate IMRT QA: Prediction of the Range of Rectal NTCP Using a 2D Field Approach Based on Variations of the Rectal Wall Motion and Thickness

Purpose: The aims of this study is to (1) introduce a 2D field of possible rectal normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) in prostate intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plan, so that based on a given prescribed dose the rectal NTCP is merely a function of the rectal wall thickness and rec...
