Abstract

For HDR prostate brachytherapy treatments of 15Gy to the whole gland plus focal boost, optimisation to either tumour plus margin (F-PTV) or involved sectors was compared. For 15 patients median F-PTV D90 and V150 were 21.0Gy and 77.2% for F-PTV optimisation and 19.8Gy and 75.6% for sector optimisation.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. 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 25 September 2015.
All research outputs
#22,759,802
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Radiotherapy & Oncology
#4,099
of 4,846 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#245,015
of 285,944 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Radiotherapy & Oncology
#69
of 111 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,846 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.6. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
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 285,944 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 111 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
