Validation of RTOG 0813 Proximal Bronchial Tree Constraints for Pulmonary Toxicity with Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Central Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Clinical validation of protocol-specified dosimetric constraints for the proximal bronchial tree (PBT) is limited for central non-small cell lung cancer treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). We sought to validate RTOG PBT constraints with a large institutional dataset.
