| Abstract |
The incomplete repair (IR) model expresses the cell repair effect from radiation-induced damage over time, which is given little consideration in actual treatment planning. By incorporating the IR model into the normal tissue complication probability (NTCP), the accuracy and safety of treatment plan evaluations concerning the effect of repair can be improved. This study aims to evaluate the impact of incorporating the IR model into the NTCP by varying time-related factors such as the repair half-time (T1/2) and the junction-shift sc3hedule in craniospinal irradiation (CSI). CSI was planned retrospectively, and the NTCP of the spinal cord was calculated with the IR model for values of T1/2from 1 to 10 h. The NTCP in the case of changing the junction-shift schedule was also examined in the same manner. The NTCP with the IR model increased with increasing T1/2, which is prominent for the larger T1/2. By changing the junction-shift schedule, the NTCP with the IR model decreased when adjacent fields overlapped. The IR model is a valuable addition to treatment planning because it enables the NTCP to be evaluated including the effect of repair and differences in scheduling to be reflected in the NTCP. However, these are largely dependent on the value of the T1/2. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 15. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 March 2018.
All research outputs
#2,100,224
of 23,025,074 outputs
Outputs from Radiation Oncology
#38
of 2,073 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#47,582
of 330,329 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Radiation Oncology
#4
of 42 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,025,074 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 90th percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,073 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.7. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 330,329 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 42 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its contemporaries.
