Other investigators have expanded the C-DVH to include functional and spatial information [ 4 34 35 ] , but the current investigation is the first report correlating a DVH which has been expanded to include BED parameters with late treatment toxicity for prostate cancer irradiation .
It should be noted that in all cases, the average grade 3 DVH's - conventional or BED - were consistently above and to the right of the corresponding grade 0 curve at each dose (or BED) level from zero to maximum, again validating the uniform comparison approach summarized in Equations (2) and (3).
In view of the lead role the prostate has taken in understanding treatment planning, patient setup, and dose escalation, incorporation of treatment-related information into the DVH - to further facilitate advances in reduction of rectal or urinary toxicity - is highly appropriate.
Because this analysis was performed with two independent measures of merit of the DVH's - the AUC and the V60, the early results reported herein appear promising for the use of BED-DVH's.
Second, the dose plotted on the x-axis of a conventional DVH (C-DVH) is conventional dose, which does not take into account many factors influencing the effects of the dose on the given tissue.
