Radiobiological parameters of liver and lung metastases derived from tumor control data of 3719 metastases.
CONCLUSIONS: α/β ratios for liver and lung metastases are higher than the usually assumed 10Gy. Differences between CRC and non-CRC histology were found. Future studies confirming these findings in individual patient data are needed.
