Standardising image registration and dose mapping for thoracic reirradiation: A national multi-centre benchmarking study

Key Points

• Significantly better consistency in OAR transfer using DIR over RIR is shown.
• The study indicates reduced variability in EQD2-dose evaluations with DIR.
• Observational analysis using case-control design was applied across multiple centers.
• Support for DIR use may enhance reirradiation planning in lung cancer treatments.
