Transversal cross section (left) and sagittal plan (right) through the PTV of an example patient treated on the IMRT protocol with the bootstrap variance of the dose within the CTV shown in color-wash. It is apparent that the variance was larger within the CTV close to the rectum, which stems from a steep dose-gradient in that region as well as the magnitude of the positioning uncertainty in this direction
