Abstract
Conclusions: Our results support the use of three-dimensional planning aimed at minimizing the percent of incidentally irradiated lung volume to reduce pulmonary toxicity. Age was also correlated with post-RT side effects. According to ROC analysis, V20 could well predict the risk for radiologic pneumonitis for the studied semiquantitative model.
