Abstract
In this retrospective analysis, more than one-third of curative-intent RT courses were associated with at least 1 acute hospital encounter during or shortly after irradiation. Given that acute encounters varied by patient, disease-site, and treatment characteristics, these findings can inform targeted preventive measures to reduce cancer-related acute hospital encounters and guide improved management protocols.
