Incorporating the Local Biological Effect of Dose Per Fraction in IMRT Inverse Optimization

n intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), the dose in each voxel of the organs at risk (OAR) can be strongly reduced compared to conformal radiation therapy (RT). Due to the sensitivity of late side-effects to fraction size, a smaller dose per fraction in the normal tissues represent an increa...
