Optic nerve constraints for carbon ion RT at CNAO - Reporting and relating outcome to European and Japanese RBE.

CONCLUSION: New DLEM constraints for the ON were derived by analyzing CNAO toxicity data and by linking our results to the experience of NIRS and GSI/HIT. This work demonstrates the value of recalculating and reporting results in both DLEM and DNIRS.
