Description

Highlights: • NSCLC dose–response curves show evidence of indirect cell damage at large doses. • Brain metastases dose–response curves show evidence of damage saturation at large doses. • Dose prescription to such tumors might be re-evaluated according to the reported evidence. To investigate the possible contribution of indirect damage and damage saturation to tumour control obtained with SBRT/SRS treatments for early-stage NSCLC and brain metastases.
