Early prediction of acute esophagitis for adaptive radiotherapy
Acute esophagitis (AE) is a common dose-limiting toxicity in radiotherapy (RT) of locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC). We developed an early AE prediction model from weekly accumulated esophagus dose and its associated local volumetric change.
