Accumulated dose to the rectum, measured using dose–volume histograms and dose-surface maps, is different from planned dose in all patients treated with radiotherapy for prostate cancer

OBJECTIVE: We sought to calculate accumulated dose (D(A)) to the rectum in patients treated with radiotherapy for prostate cancer. We were particularly interested in whether dose–surface maps (DSMs) provide additional information to dose–volume histograms (DVHs). METHODS: Manual rectal contours were...
