Abstract Understanding and predicting the impact of any radiotherapy treatment is critical if patients are to receive treatment with a high likelihood of eliminating the tumour and low likelihood of complications. One of the major contributing factors in determining these effects is the volume treated. This review assesses the current use and accuracy of a series of models which consider volume, building on a previous review which investigated the impact of fractionation particularly with respect to the linear quadratic model. Volume is particularly important in assessing the overall effect with respect to destroying the clonogenic cells and preventing damage to the normal tissues. Dose volume histograms are one of the simplest and most useful forms of representing volume information, however it is difficult to correlate plans based only on DVHs. For this reason various reduction schemes have been introduced and tumour control probability and normal tissues complication probability models adjusted to use this information. Many of these models have proved quite useful in the clinic although they are limited by the available radiobiological data.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
