Table 2. Two percent of GTV from 1 to 15 cc and the corresponding sphere diameter.

*The dose prescription to the GTV D98% results in less than 2% of the GTV being below the prescribed dose.​​​​​ GTV D2% and above irradiate a volume equivalent to 2% of GTV

**The diameter (to the first decimal place) of a sphere corresponding to the 2% volume of GTV

GTV: gross tumor volume; DX%: a minimum dose covering at least X% of a target volume

GTV (cc) 1.00 2.50 5.00 7.50 10.00 12.50 15.00
2% of GTV (cc)* 0.02 0.05 0.10 0.15 0.20 0.25 0.30
Diameter (mm)** 3.4 4.6 5.8 6.6 7.3 7.8 8.3
