Abstract
Different planning protocols resulted in different levels of PTV dose homogeneity. We observed differences of up to ⩾7 Gy in composite and individual mean OAR doses. This could influence rates of toxicity and should be taken into account when comparing clinical studies. A consensus should be reached between major trial groups on appropriate PTV parameters.
