Trends in Radiation Oncology Treatment Fractionation at a Single Academic Center, 2014-2020

CONCLUSION: We observed increased adoption of hypofractionation at our institution during the study period for both breast and prostate cancer. For bone metastases, hypofractionation had largely been adopted before the study period. There was evidence of an accelerated trend toward hypofractionation for some cancers during the COVID-19 pandemic.PMID:34701250 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijrobp.2021.07.1055
