  1. * Indicates patients whose target volume included the CSF and the entire vertebral bodies. All other patients’ target volumes included only the CSF.
  2. † Patient was 13 years of age at the time of treatment, but assumed to be at skeletal maturity for treatment planning.
  3. € Due poor contour resolution, volume estimates for the esophagus and thyroid of patient #1 were not optimal. However, sensitivity tests indicate that changes in the volumes for these organs by as much as 300% did not affect the mean values for the population.
