Biologically effective dose (BED) value lower than 120  Gy improve outcomes in lung SBRT

ConclusionOur data suggest that mean total dose lower 54 and a calculated BED  <  120 Gy is the optimal. Further prospective data are needed to confirm these results and determine the optimal dose fractionation scheme as a function of tumor size and location of volume.
