Improper lung volume-dose parameters are risk factors for acute fatal radiation pneumonitis among esophageal cancer patients receiving chemoradiotherapy: a case-control study

Improper lung volume-dose parameters are risk factors for acute fatal radiation pneumonitis among esophageal cancer patients receiving chemoradiotherapy: a case-control study

BackgroundDefinitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (DCRT) is the standard treatment for locally advanced unresectable esophageal cancer (EC). However, acute fatal radiation pneumonitis (AFRP) is one of the most harmful complications and it is still controversial which factors pose a greater risk.AimT...
