Abstract
Biological modelling can extrapolate calculations outside the borders of published treatment schedules to clarify borderline situations. Optimum schedules in radiotherapy can reliably give more tumour control if two fractions/day are used. The potential gains are equivalent to about two fractions of 2Â Gy as given by this modelling. However, the late complications will be less with some nearly tumour equivalent shorter schedules if optimally designed.
