Table 1.

Volumetric dose constraints observed in pancreatic cancer treatment plans. Each of the four primary OARs is subject to the same volumetric constraint of less than 0.5 cm3 receiving a maximum dose of 45 Gy

Structure Volume Measure Max Dose (Gy)
Stomach <  0.5 cm3 45
Duodenum <  0.5 cm3 45
Small Bowel <  0.5 cm3 45
Large Bowel <  0.5 cm3 45
Spinal Cord = 0 cm3 40
Kidneys <  50% 15
