Chapter 6 126 Conclusions For NSCLC patients treated with CCRT and IMRT, the V50 was identified as most accurate predictor of grade ≥3 AET. We advise to introduce the V50 model in clinical practice in order to reduce the risk of AET, and have a better prediction of severe acute esophageal toxicity. There is no difference in the incidence of grade ≥2 AET between 3DCRT and IMRT in patients treated with CCRT.
