Theoretical analysis of the dose dependence of the oxygen enhancement ratio and its relevance for clinical applications

BACKGROUND: The increased resistance of hypoxic cells to ionizing radiation is usually believed to be the primary reason for treatment failure in tumors with oxygen-deficient areas. This oxygen effect can be expressed quantitatively by the oxygen enhancement ratio (OER). Here we investigate theoreti...
