Rectum and bladder DVHs compared to UC San Diego model-predicted pDVHs. Scatter plots of specific rectum DVH points (a)V40 and (b)V65 show that the large majority of treatment plans are delivering more rectal dose than needed. (c)Averaging across the 219-patient sample shows the spread between clinical rectum DVHs and pDVHs. Scatter plots of (d)V40 and (e)V65 in the bladder, as well as the (f)average bladder DVH and pDVH demonstrate greater agreement between clinical DVHs and bladder pDVHs.
