a#P and #T are the number of patients and tests, respectively. P(R¯), P(γ¯%), and P(γ¯mean) correspond to the percentages of patients (P) within tolerance R¯,γ¯%, and γ¯mean and T(R), T(γ%), and T(γmean) are the percentages of tests (T) within tolerance R, γ%, % and γmean, respectively. Of all, 355 of 3940 tests (9%) resulted in OTL. For the abdomen treatments, 2 percentage values are reported; the first 1 corresponds to the percentage considering all the errors (class 1 and class 2); the second was obtained omitting class-2 errors.
