| OAR | DVH parameters | IMRT | 3DCRT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mean ± SD | Mean ± SD | ||
| Rectum | D50 | 45.78 ± 5.26 | 51.12±5.35 |
| D30 | 59.51 ± 6.16 | 59.72 ± 6.95 | |
| Bladder | D50 | 38.12 ± 13.35 | 38.18 ± 18.77 |
| D30 | 55.87 ± 13.14 | 51.73 ± 16.28 | |
| Right femoral head | D5 | 34.61 ± 6.41 | 39.71 ± 5.34 |
| Left femoral head | D5 | 34.67 ± 6.13 | 39.39 ± 5.44 |
DVH = dose-volume histogram, IMRT = intensity-modulated radiotherapy, 3DCRT = 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy, SD = standard deviation; D50= dose received by 50% volume; D30 = dose received by 30% volume; D5 = dose received by 5% volume.
