Table 3.
Comparisons of GyE based upon use of a fixed RBE vs. the actual RBE for a given cell line and the dose differential for a tumor control probability of 70%.
| Cell line | Dose (GyE) if RBE = 3 | Physical dose (Gy) | Dose (GyE) if actual RBE used | RBE (actual) | Difference in total GyE (fixed RBE vs. actual) |

| HN5 | 87.2 | 29 | 75.9 | 2.61 | 11.3 |
| UMSCC1 | 102.8 | 34.2 | 71.5 | 2.09 | 31.3 |
| SqCC/Y1 | 74.1 | 24.7 | 63.7 | 2.58 | 10.4 |
| HN31 | 75.8 | 25.2 | 54 | 2.14 | 21.8 |
