Baseline shift corrections towards the heart: External validation of the impact on survival in early-stage NSCLC patients

CONCLUSIONS: In our SBRT cohort, the shifts towards the heart were not associated with worse OS. Moderate correlations were found between tumor and heart baseline shifts in each direction. Moreover, the distance between the PTV and the heart showed a significant correlation with shifts to the heart.PMID:38458257 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2024.110214
