Description

We investigated whether delivery of a high biologically effective dose (BED) to primary tumors affects systemic outcomes of cancer-specific death (CSD) and overall survival (OS) rates after stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (ES-NSCLC).
