  1. The first column contains the identifying capital letter for the corresponding paragraph in the results section. Average values and empirical standard deviation are given for the homogeneity H to the CTV (CTV H), the minimum dose to the PTV (PTV D min ), the maximum dose to the posterior rectum (R-PTVm D max ), the median dose to the rectum (R D 50 ) and urinary bladder (B D 50 ), and the MU. Dose values are given in Gy, H in%.
