| pubmed:abstractText |
Incidental esophageal irradiation during lung cancer therapy often causes morbidity. There is interest in trying to relate esophageal dosimetric parameters to the risk of injury. These parameters typically rely on CT-defined esophageal contours, and thus systematic limitations in esophageal contouring will influence these parameters. We herein assess the ability of a correction method, based on physiologic principles, to improve the predictive power of dosimetric parameters for radiation-induced esophageal injury.
