Abstract
The movements of the small intestine cause large uncertainties in the DVH and calculated NTCP for the individual patient, and the usefulness of dose constraints for this organ may be questioned. Still, the inter-patient variation was larger, and it may be that the DVH can be useful for judging which patients have the greatest risk for radiation injury.
