  1. Used simultaneously integrated boost (SIB) IMRT schedules in our postoperatively irradiated patients
  2. (PTV1: planning target volume 1 = boost volume, PTV2: planning target volume 2 = elective treatment volume, PTD: prescribed total dose, TRT: total radiation time, 3DCRT: three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy)
