Figure 1

The percentage change in S as a function of the percentage errors in relative biological effectiveness (RBE) for the best- (Sb) and worst-case (Sw) scenarios, where the RBE errors are assumed to be equal for both normal tissue and tumour and with PH set equal to PL. PH, physical sparing factor of high linear energy transformation; PL, physical sparing factor of low linear energy transformation.
